Deer Valley Cabin compresses the program of a family ski house into a deliberately modest footprint. The single tall volume of the great room references the agricultural buildings of the upper Wasatch, while the deep wraparound porch handles the practical work of mud, skis, and weather.
A reclaimed timber frame structure carries the loads through the open volume, leaving the perimeter walls free for full-height glazing. Cabinetry, hearth surround, and kitchen island are all in a single tone of rift-sawn oak to keep the interior reading as one continuous gesture.
