GREEN MEADOWS RESIDENCE
Textured stone and red cedar hand-hewn logs for a current western architecture
Teton County, Wyoming • 4,300 sq. ft.
Design Team: Kurt Dubbe, AIA; Bryan Gleason, Nereida Ortiz
The residence is located in the Green Meadows subdivision of Teton County, Wyoming. Kurt Dubbe aimed to create different views experiences in every room of the house, creating a setting for family members to have their privacy and look directly at the Teton mountain range to the west, and the Sleeping Indian and the Gros Ventre mountain range to the east.
The owners are from Houston Texas but were raised with deep Wyoming roots. The family had a thriving business in Casper and would visit to Tetons regularly, years later purchasing property in Jackson, Wyoming. When the time came for the family to build their dream home, there was no hesitation it would be among the Teton Mountain range.
Exterior materials, commonly found in the Jackson Hole area, such as horizontal timber, plank siding and native stone give this house a western appearance. The living, dining room and kitchen boast high ceilings and an open floor plan with large window framing commanding views of the Tetons. The master bedroom and bathroom are located on the west wing of the first floor and three more bedrooms and bathrooms are located on the second floor, and all include an office area with a work desk. Deep porches in a large outdoor living deck were designed to accommodate family and entertain guests while enjoying picturesque views. The yard was landscaped to create a variety of private outdoor living areas.
Heavily textured native stone and wood treatments utilized on the outside of the structure where carefully brought into the home. Those rough materials were balanced with lightly textured walls that provided the opportunity for the owners to display their collection of artwork and beautiful rugs. The clients’ wonderful sense of furnishings completed the entire home.
