Home tour: a Utah family sanctuary that is perfectly situated for alpine adventures

Peter Doig’s influence is felt most prominently in the main living room, where a custom fireplace, corduroy sofa and slope yellow chairs by the designer take centre stage. Other furniture pieces like the Shuffle Table by Mia Homber and a metal side table add visual contrast to these organic shapes, while a Tibetano rug underfoot softens the space further. The distinctive textiles in the space carve out pockets of conversation among family and friends, particularly as the holiday season approaches.

The most-used room of the Utah home is the kitchen, where Giannoulias’s custom millwork presents a continuation of the rest of the home. Luteca counter stools line the island, gently illuminated by  Allied Maker Pinnacle sconces. For a pop of colour, an antique blue trunk from Tori Jones Studio stands alongside a Cassina Ficulpa table lamp and vases by Natalie Garza.

Moving onto the dining area, the custom dining table is surrounded by Daumiller chairs sourced through Nickey Kehoe, with a custom dining banquette also by the designer. Above, a Charlotte Perriand art light softly frames Justin Wheatley’s artwork The Winter Settled In, which further hearkens back to the alpine environment. Scattered across the table are ceramic cups and plates by Tamara Bryan, reflecting the family’s love for sharing meals.

The more private areas of the home reflect a deeper, more intuitive palette. A custom bed and custom lounge chair by Giannoulias anchor the room, paired with vintage 1930s nightstands sourced from Chairish. Hanging above the space is a Ruemmler pendant, while Vera sconces by In Common With provide the perfect bedside light to bask in. Nearby, the fireplace also makes a cosy vignette, with a Loloi rug grounding the space underfoot and Eddie Powell’s Mustard Mountains from Chairish on the wall. 

Next door is the primary bathroom, with a custom cabinet and mirror designed by Giannoulias to further enhance the serene atmosphere. A copper tub stands at the heart of the space, with a fluted pendant and a brass table nearby completing the metallic vignette. 

Returning to the lower level of the Utah home, the movie room is cocooned in custom millwork and furniture by Giannoulias. A Clam Chair from Eternity Modern provides a sculptural seating option, while Lumfardo sconces and a Caprani lamp maintain the cinematic climate.  

The bar, anchored by Allied Maker pendants and a Tibetano rug, continues the lower level's relaxed register. A Blatt Billiards pool table occupies the adjacent room beneath a Vibia pendant and Human Home sconces, with Lawson Fenning barstools and a Chris Riccardo artwork completing the room.

Altogether, the home feels deeply attuned to the rhythms of the homeowners’ daily lives together. Throughout the year, there is no shortage of activities and spots in which to relax after they’re through, ensuring that the space will continue to grow with the clients over time.
