4C Group has won the People’s Choice Award at the 2026 Park City Architectural & Design Showcase, presented by the Park City Area Home Builders Association.

This year, the showcase invited ten of the region’s architecture and design firms to each design a luxury mountain home for the same homesite at Marcella at Jordanelle Ridge. During the showcase, held August 28 to 30 and September 4 to 7, the public explored each concept through renderings, floor plans and 3D models. Then they voted for the design that inspired them most.

A Home That Belongs to the Mountain

Our concept treats the home as a continuation of the mountain, not a structure set on top of it.

The home follows the natural contours of the site. Its circular plan has no traditional front or back, so every side responds to its surroundings. The views shift with the terrain and the light.

At the center, the landscape rises through the architecture to form a sheltered courtyard. It brings daylight and the outdoors deep into the home.

A living green roof carries the native landscape across the structure. From a distance, the home settles quietly into the summit.

Natural stone, warm wood, expansive glass and water features ground the design in its setting. Gathering spaces face the Jordanelle Reservoir and the surrounding peaks, while private rooms offer quieter places to retreat.

From First Sketch to Final Plan

The design began with simple concept sketches exploring how the home could sit on the ridge. Those ideas were developed into a full set of floor plans and a 3D model.

“We’re grateful to everyone who took the time to explore the designs and vote. Our goal was a home that feels as though it has always belonged to the mountain, and it means a great deal that this vision resonated with our community,” said Solim Gasparik, co-founder of 4C Group.

At 4C, architecture, interior design and construction work as one team from the first conversation. It is how we approach every home, whether it is a showcase concept or a home built for a client. Learn how our process works.
