THE HOUSE AND THE COLLECTION:

Located in the heart of Jackson, is a creative design collaboration by Farmer Payne Architects and the homeowner, noted art collector and interior designer Agnes Bourne. The home offers inspiration and gracious accommodation for visiting artists to the majestic Jackson Hole valley. Windows are strategically placed to offer views of the surrounding mountains while maintaining privacy for the in-town setting.

Natural light fills the space and compliments the artful décor and an insightful, contemporary art collection with works by notable artists such as John Cage, Roy De Forest and Henry T. Hopkins, as well as works by regional talent such as Ben Roth, Kathryn Mapes Turner, and Sam and Jenny Dowd.
