Property Description
Architect Lee Knell studied under Louis I Kahn at Arizona State University during his time in the military service. Afterward, he graduated with honors from the University of Utah with an MFA in Architecture. Today, the city of Provo is adorned with private homes that reflect his fusion of high modernism and Japanese sensibilities. High modernism is a form of modernity characterized by steadfast confidence in science and technology as means to reorder our social and natural world. In 1958, Provo's Oak Hills area looked quite different. Only a few homes were scattered about the foothills of this unique landscape, poised to take full advantage of the mountain, city and lake views. This lot, with a dry creek to the side, is full of life-perennial hummingbirds slow the ticking of the clock as they buzz past, signaling the arrival of spring. Their sudden disappearance in early fall hints that temperatures will soon drop. Follow the fawns and witness the fading of their spots or an elder buck releasing his antlers-these moments are all part of your world. This 1959 Sunset Magazine award-winning home was designed with the area's spectacular natural beauty in mind; it considers every aspect of the land. The post-and-beam structure allows light to flow through the clerestory windows from above; it frames the walls of glass that showcase the lake and valley views below. The floating staircase connects each floor and allows for intimate spaces to be divided into multiple areas. When remodeling this home, the owners wanted to stay true to the original spirit of the house. The window frames were kept minimal, the St. Charles cabinets were refinished to look new, and the tiles and paint were kept clean and simple. Little details like the gravel driveway, shaded by tall scrub oaks, and a simple carport create a path to a sanctuary away from it all-a place that you know is special.
