HOME DETAILS

• The Sculptural Butterfly Roof opens to the views: one capturing the Tetons to the west,” Pearson says, “and one opening to the east, down-valley, which feels more intimate. It’s like an invitation to explore the site.”

• Reclaimed, weathered snow fencing—silvery-gray and variegated—clads much of the home and provides a rich contrast to the natural steel detailing.

• Board-formed concrete plays up the textural interest on the walls and fireplaces, with accents of black walnut used for interior doors and cabinets.

• The home’s biggest surprise is meant to be experienced: In lieu of a formal entry or porch, Pearson Design Group created an inviting outdoor living room. “As we were designing, it occurred to me that we could make the entry a room and embrace the lifestyle and views that Debra and Clay wanted,” Pearson explains. “It reflects the owners’ temperament perfectly.” A fireplace warms the space, while sliding barn doors keep out wind. A rug-like, inlaid-wood floor is stylish—and adds textural contrast to the solid concrete surfaces.

• Living room: A large sectional sofa from Camerich and Alvar Aalto-designed caribou hide armchairs sit atop a 16-by-16-foot sheepskin rug. “Who doesn’t want to sink their toes into a sheepskin rug?” Houser laughs. “It’s cozy and comfortable—and embedded in the idea of a rustic mountain cabin,” she explains. “We can tip our hats to the Western vernacular without making this a traditional log cabin.” The centerpiece of the room is a custom coffee table, made from a sliced tree stump. Above it, an ethereal pendant from Moooi softens the mood of the room.

• “A good house has multiple personalities,” architect Larry Pearson declares. “It changes depending on the time of day and the season,” Pearson explains. “It reveals itself over time.”

• The master bedroom’s headboard is made from a giant black-walnut slab; another slab serves as a vanity top in the powder room.

• Houser designed the dining table from yet another piece of the wood and painted the live edge white for a modern riff on a rustic motif

• Perhaps the greatest (and hippest) tribute to the West, the wall that faces the front door holds an art installation of bison heads, created by Utah artist Owen Mortensen

• “The key to marrying rustic and modern elements is the experience,” Houser says. “You expect to see these things in a mountain home in Jackson, but we used them in ways that make you experience them or see them differently.” “This home keeps your interest,” Larry Pearson concludes. “It invites you to enjoy the grand elements, like the views, and the smaller experiences, like savoring a cup of coffee with another person. It lives with you.”

• Furnishings in the outdoor room were chosen to withstand the elements with sliding barn doors and woodburning fireplace.

• “The home is art, in and of itself — that’s what people say: It’s a piece of art,” she said. And “of all the rooms, people love that front deck.”

• Covered patios on both the East and West sides provide a stunning venue for entertaining or a relaxing morning cup of coffee.

• MATERIAL WORLD - Discover what gives this home its rustic, textural look.

• RECLAIMED WOOD SNOW FENCING - Weathered by the sun, wind and snow, this material is loved for its soft grayish tones. This home’s vertical pine siding is a fine example: The shades of the wood vary depending on the material’s source and exposure to the elements, making it a good match for the varied colors and textures of the surrounding landscape.

• BOARD-FORMED CONCRETE - Long before metal and plastic were used to form concrete into shapes appropriate for building, wood was the material of choice. It was strong enough to hold up against the pressure and weight of a concrete pour, and the texture it left on the concrete was an accepted byproduct of the process. Fast-forward nearly a century, and architects and homeowners now covet the heavily textured surface of board-formed concrete.\

• STEEL DETAILING - Architect Larry Pearson used rusted steel panels to complement the aged wood exterior, giving the home a slight industrial bent while preserving its nature-inspired color palette. “We don’t think of the materials as decorative,” he says. “We think of them as fundamental.”
