Grand Teton National Park Association

HandsOn Designed  these lower level offices back in 2004. Our goal was to distribute the natural light from just a few windows throughout the interior, resulting in a series of private windowed offices  (sandblasted for privacy) around some open office cubicles. Ten years later the organization was looking more more private spaces. We responded by installing sliding glass doors on custom steel supports between raised cubicle walls that stop short of the ceiling so fire sprinklers weren't affected. We also added custom beech cabinetry along corridors walls, and divided some offices in half with decorative partitions.

Modular Eco-Hotel 
Schematic Design

Proposed 5 unit  condo-hotel development on Flat Creek in the Town of Jackson. Steel moment frames fastened to concrete footings create ground floor parking with side by side prefabricated modules  stacked above. Atop that volume is a covered roof deck with sauna and outdoor fireplace. Photovoltaic cells, rainwater collection cisterns, geothermal heating, intgral bike racks and recycling bins support Jacksons 

Public Restroom Prototypes
Teton County Parks & Recreation

The design of the structures is a an attempt to develop a sustainable, cost effective architectural prototype that represents Teton County’s historic agricultural heritage while providing self sufficient, tamper resistant public amenities.
