COVER STORY: Park City Mountain Modern Architecture

As residents of Park City for over a decade, Ken and Julie Chahine were ready for an architect to design their dream mountain home. The Chahine’s knew exactly what they wanted – modern architecture, sustainable design and energy efficient systems. Although modern homes in a mountain setting are still the exception, this is exactly what the couple was interested in pursuing. Julie has her own interior design business, J Squared Interiors, and the couple had been developing their style and design ideas over many years.

Construction Update: New Mountain Architecture

With an anticipated occupancy in the early fall; all exterior materials are nearing completion and the focus is shifting to interior finishes. We are very pleased with how the exterior wood cladding is coming together on site and the relationship it has to the textural boards from concrete. The interior cabinetry is currently in production and we look forward to seeing the relationship the refined white oak interiors will have in contrast to the rough sawn cedar clad exterior. Next steps include the final finish layer of landscaping to bring the site back to its natural state and reinforce the home's relationship to this beautiful setting.

Park City Architecture Designed by Sparano + Mooney is Featured on the Cover of Utah Style + Design, Summer 2016

If you are looking for a pleasant way to pass time indoors as the seasons change, look no further than the Summer 2016 issue of Utah Style & Design - a Park City modern home designed by Sparano + Mooney Architecture has been featured on the cover!

The corresponding article, “Opening Act”, written by Natalie Taylor and photographed by Scot Zimmerman, showcases the “strikingly beautiful” contemporary residence, which “combines dynamic architecture with high-style livability and sustainability”. The clients were clear about choosing the right Park City architect and about their must-haves: “We wanted a relatively quiet house with no duplicate spaces. It was critical that the house feels like it belongs on the land and that it fits peacefully into its environment without feeling forced”.
