Inside a Remote Cabin Home Built At The Base Of A Mountain (House Tour)

Surrounded by mountains, Lone Pine by CLB Architect is a cabin home located in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. By embracing the remote landscape, the architects have delivered a cabin home that opens up to the scenic mountains, natural surrounds and a spring creek that native animals such a foxes, elks and deers visit.

When first coming up with the design of the family home, CLB Architects was faced with some design guidelines that prescribed that all the roofs in the subdivision needed to be gabled and have an overhang. However, after negotiating with the review committee, the architect was able to create a cabin home with deep recessed porches that created covered outdoor spaces to answer the design and decor guidelines.

The diagram of the home is inspired by an H shape. The built form is composed of two pavilions, one of which contains the public functions such as the kitchen, living and dining rooms, while the other pavilion holds the private bedrooms. Shown in the house tour, the two pavilions have been linked by a connector that also serves as the entry to the home. For the interior design of the cabin home, CLB Architects aimed to strike a balance between warm wood elements and smooth abstract plaster surfaces. For the material palette, the architect has chosen an array of custom decor details that enrich the home’s interior character. One such feature is leather accents that feature about the house in judicious ways to elevate the senses of touch and smell.

Playing an important part in the liveability of the residence is natural light. For Lone Pine, CLD Architects has embraced the wealth of natural light not just for warmth but for its ability to add drama and animation to the materials. Furthermore, the articulation of the exterior design of the cabin home encourages a natural and playful exchange of light and shadow that changes throughout the day. This is seen most evidently over the rear, covered porch that features a hole in the roof plain that allows the interchange of light and shadow. Further complementing the cabin home is the emphasis on indoor-outdoor living, an aspect that CLB Architects embrace throughout the entire home. This is shown in the main bedroom where the owners can step out and look at the ski report on the mountains and enjoy their morning coffee. In the dwelling’s structure, the architect has allowed for its owners a quality space that encourages indoor-outdoor connections during the warmer weather while, for the colder months, the interior design offers warmth and comfort. Built by CLB Architects, Lone Pine is the perfect city escape for its owners when they need a remote cabin home getaway.
