In this third episode of our series Altitude Adjustment, Stephanie takes us behind the scenes in Park City, Utah, to reveal the innovative systems shaping this one-of-a-kind build. With the basement slab pour just days away, she walks us through the detailed under-slab design—from radon mitigation and sub-plumbing to vapor barriers and radiant heating. Stephanie highlights the importance of planning for polished concrete floors, flush showers, and energy-efficient insulation, while also showcasing the teamwork and precision needed to avoid costly mistakes. This episode explores how retaining walls, backfilling, and site-specific challenges are tackled with creative solutions like conveyor systems and imported boulders. We also get a first look at the HOA-mandated “porta potty house,” a miniature showcase for exterior finishes, featuring stonework, Tesla solar shingles, and Delta Millworks soffits. Episode three captures the complexity, craftsmanship, and vision behind building a mountain home designed to perform beautifully for generations. Follow Stephanie on Instagram.
