Design principal Logan Leachman spent over a year touring potential Jackson Hole home sites with a Michigan couple in search of the perfect fit. It was remarkable views along an extended ridge to the north, terminating in the Grand Tetons, that finally got the nod – and ultimately drove the house’s design.

Jonathan founded Jonathan L Foote AIA - Architects and Planners (now JLF Architects; his initials remain our brand) in 1979. His architecture blended into the Montana landscape as if grown from the sites themselves, framed by salvaged century-old barn timbers and floorboards. He formed and shaped where we’ve been … and where we’re headed.

Read our tribute to the visionary architect’s lasting legacy in the Anvil blog on our website (link in bio).

From the feature in about a Jackson house we designed in collaboration with - “Adjacent to the kitchen, the family room includes a Saba sectional, vintage shearling chair, Stahl + Band coffee tables and an Avantgarden Ltd. floor lamp. The artwork is by Piero Dorazio. A fireplace surround of metal paneling plays off reclaimed timber beams and dry-stacked Montana stone.”

The homeowners’ existing prized 14-foot-long dining table provided JLF’s Logan Leachman with architectural inspiration for this Jackson Hole home: the heirloom piece, crafted of wood repurposed from the doors of an ancient Italian church, dictated the space’s dimensions - highlighted with a grid of windows soaring into the gable end to maximize mountain views. Interior designer arranged pendants to playfully mimic stars in the night sky. As seen in the current issue of

We love a good barn, with its historic reminders of old-world craftsmanship, and we welcome the opportunity to preserve the form as a prevalent architectural structure, repurposed for modern uses. Check out our latest ANVIL Blog post titled “Noble Barns.”

Together with design-build partner , we approached the complete renovation of a Park City log house, with the intent to resize the interior spaces while modernizing the outdated aesthetic. Giant log columns were removed and wood beams replaced and streamlined with vaulted steel trusses layered over an earthy gray reclaimed-plank ceiling in the living room.
