This project is a three-unit residential structure designed to look like a single family home. A primary design element of the building is a cedar screen which peels away from the street-facing façade to signify the entry point to the building and provide shading and privacy to interior spaces. The screen is inspired by snow fences, a ubiquitous feature along Wyoming highways that keep windblown snow off the roads. The screen conceals a "dogtrot" that acts as the access points for each unit and for the owner's unit to access a rooftop deck. In an effort to get natural light into the basement unit, deep light wells were added in the rear and side yards with a cascading boulder field and native plants, such as one might see hiking in nearby Grand Teton National Park.
