Split Timber House
A sculpted volume tuned to light, views, and openness.
Project Type: Single family residential
Scope: Ground-Up Architecture, Interior Design
Location: Jackson, WY
Project Size: 3,800 SQ FT
This single-family home in Jackson, Wyoming is defined by a quiet shift in geometry: a second-floor volume rotated off axis to open the home to long views on all sides. The result is a quiet but intentional structure that balances openness with privacy, and compression with release.
The material palette is warm and minimal—custom stone slabs, soft oak, and matte black accents—chosen for texture, durability, and clarity. Framed openings and covered outdoor spaces extend the living environment outward, creating a calm, connected experience in every season.
Oriented for Outlook
The upper floor is conceived as a hollow volume—shifted and rotated to create open ends that frame distant views. This move also brings in light from multiple directions, creating long sightlines and a strong sense of directionality inside the home.
Indoor–Outdoor Living, Framed with Care
Living spaces open onto terraces and covered patios, extending the interior into the landscape while providing shade and privacy. Carefully placed openings frame light and views without overexposure, creating a home that feels open yet grounded by walls, overhangs, and natural screening.
Material as Quiet Detail
Custom-sourced stone slabs, soft oak, and matte black accents form a restrained but tactile palette. Each surface was selected to age gracefully and add depth without distraction—minimalism with texture and weight.
A Calm Interior, Tuned to Its Setting
Interior spaces remain visually quiet, allowing the surrounding landscape to take the lead. Natural materials, simple forms, and clean lines keep focus on what’s outside, while ensuring daily life feels grounded and calm.
