Three Falls Home

Contemporary Exterior, Salt Lake City

The Three Falls home is located in Alpine City, a quiet residential community tucked into the foothills of Lone Peak in the Wasatch Mountain Range of Northern Utah. The site straddles Three Falls Creek and is largely wooded with native oak and other deciduous trees with an open meadow and views to the North of the house and views of Utah Lake and Valley to the south. The linked pavilions are expressed as simple vernacular gabled forms which recall the mountain peaks beyond and define the three living areas of the house while being separated by daylit connector ‘bridges’ that create a floating transparency from mountain to valley. The master bedroom and children bedrooms access are separated from the gathering pavilion through the bridge and open stair. Materials for the house center on natural traditional building materials including Indiana Limestone, stained Accoya siding, copper gutters and trim along with a discrete integrated Tesla solar roof tile system that generates 24 kW of sustainable energy to the house. Interior finishes are sophisticated, yet relaxed with Walnut millwork, textural stone, and touches of brass repeated throughout the home.
