This construction site is unlike any you've seen before. Cranes drop in fully kitted-out modules, like Legos, while the construction team guide them into place. This bespoke method of construction is on the cutting edge of efficiency and design. The Hideout station will benefit from the reduced site disruptions, speed, and quality control this method provides.

Hideout has a booming population, a 78.59% increase since the 2020 census, with the largest annual change of any Utah city at 8.25% (according to World Population Review). This has necessitated the construction of a new fire station to serve the growing community.

Split House is one of four designs for the residences at Blue Sky, currently in development at ajc architects. The house takes advantage of the sloped site and scenic views by "splitting" one volume into three and resting them into the slope. Horizontal circulation is achieved through glass-walled bridges that connect each wing on the main floor, with outdoor connections linking the wings on the floor below. This connective tissue carries you from interior spaces out into nature as you move through the home.

The northernmost wing houses two bedrooms, a bunkroom, and a secondary living space. From that living space, you cross one of the glass-walled bridges, following the home's main axis past a stair that descends to the walk-out subterranean floor, and arrive in the main volume of the home. Here you'll find the dining and living areas, along with the east-facing entrance (the home is entered via a bridge) and an office. The southernmost wing is dedicated to a spacious primary suite, accessed via another transparent bridge along the home's central axis.

Split House offers a rare opportunity to live amid 4,000 sprawling acres of views within the Wasatch Mountains, at The Residences at Blue Sky, Auberge Collection.

Last week, ajc architects met with project stakeholders and Eden of to discuss interior design for the Edward, a permanent supportive housing project taking shape in Salt Lake. There's always something special about seeing swatches and samples in person: the care and attention put into every space of the project can be seen and felt for the first time.

The Edward, a permanent supportive housing project developed with The Road Home, provides housing for vulnerable and low-income residents across multiple phases. Our team used a modular system of carefully designed unit types to streamline the process, leaving one major question: the exterior façade.

Over the past several months, our team has produced more than 95 potential exterior treatments. The building sits on a busy street corner, so we sought designs that bring visual interest to the street while creating a space residents can feel at home in.

As we near a finalized design, we want to share some of the hidden effort that usually goes unseen.

07/30/2026

At ajc architects, permanent supportive housing is more than a project typology, it's a cause we care about deeply. PSH offers people facing homelessness and chronic disability a real path to stability and a better quality of life, and we believe design has a direct role to play in that outcome.

Over years of work in this space, we've engaged closely with residents, service providers, and community partners to understand what actually makes these environments work. That process shaped a standardized unit prototype we can adapt to new construction or existing buildings alike, grounded in Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) and trauma-informed design (TID) principles. Well-lit common areas, secure entryways, private living spaces, and full accessibility aren't add-ons in our approach, they're core to how we design for residents' mental and physical well-being.

The result is a set of guidelines that address the complex needs of residents while strengthening the fabric of the community around them. We believe investing in high-quality PSH changes lives, and helps build a more equitable, inclusive society.

The 150th anniversary of the Battle of the Little Bighorn (Greasy Grass) is underway, and Buffalo's Fire, the journalism wing of the Indigenous Media Freedom Alliance, is documenting the commemorative events. A group of 300 horse riders crossed the long grass to reenact the "Charge up the Hill." Watch the ride on YouTube: https://youtu.be/OvLtFsoRoYY?si=4rXoG7nsGkW936c-, and follow the commemoration at Buffalosfire.com or here: https://www.buffalosfire.com/greasy-grass-little-bighorn-150th-live-updates -event-id-33.

We're honored to be rebuilding the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument visitor center, creating a space to learn about the battle and Lakota history while honoring the site.

Meetings out, paddles in!

The ajc team traded our desks for the rapids on our annual float down the Provo River. Utah’s smoky skies cleared up for the morning, giving everyone some much-needed fresh air as we snaked down
Provo Canyon.

Most of the crew managed to stay completely dry except for Heber and Justin’s kids testing out the
rope swing, and Mike taking an unexpected dip of his own!

The San Diego AIA Conference offered a valuable chance to step back from the day-to-day and reflect on where the practice of architecture is headed, particularly through sessions and conversations on community outreach, AI technology, sustainability, and adaptive reuse. These themes felt especially relevant to the work we do every day, where we're helping clients make thoughtful decisions, extending the life of existing buildings, and responding to changing needs with practical, forward-looking design.

What stood out most was hearing from architects across the country about the realities of practice today, from how teams are adapting and where technology is creating new opportunities, to how design can continue to serve communities in more meaningful ways. I'm returning with a useful perspective, a few good questions, and a renewed appreciation for the collaborative, curious, and purpose-driven work we're building toward.
