Snow Creek Cottages

Snow Creek Cottages is a collection of 13 single-family residences in Park City, completed by Elliott Workgroup in 2019. Developed for the Park City Municipal Corporation, the project responded to a municipal brief emphasizing energy efficiency and sustainable practices for a new neighborhood of detached homes within a compact site. The total development spans 18,140 square feet and balances contemporary and traditional stylistic approaches as referenced in its detailing and form. The design employs a highly insulated building envelope using Structural Integrated Panels (SIPs) to improve thermal performance. Each residence incorporates ground source heat pumps for heating and cooling, along with solar technologies including grid-tied photovoltaic arrays and evacuated tube collectors for domestic hot water. These combined systems are designed to achieve an energy use that is projected to be 60% lower than that of similar code-compliant buildings. The arrangement of individual dwellings allows each unit to benefit from sustainable systems while contributing to an overall neighborhood-scale approach to green building.
