Silver Summit

Designed to integrate into the natural topography, this home in Park City, Utah steps with the landscape resulting in three half-flight level transitions. This made for easier living, lower excavation and retaining costs, and minimized site disturbance and vegetation impact - indeed, less is more.
Project Year: 2021
Country: United States
Zip Code: 84098
The Silver Summit home nestles gently into the Park City mountainside. Broken into three living volumes, each a half-flight above or below the next, the home makes for easy vertical transition despite living on a mountainside.
