Firefly at Eagle Mountain

Founded on the belief that design can influence a healthier, wellness-centered life, the Firefly at Eagle Mountain community reimagines Utah living for modern families outside Salt Lake City. Single-family and multifamily homes are planned for the growing workforce in the area, offering a refined approach to modern living in a fast-growing, dynamic region. A variety of amenities, all interconnected by a significant open space and trails network, will set the framework for strong community connections.

From the master plan through the architecture, these alley-loaded homes are intentionally designed to help families connect more with each other and the outdoors, opting for true connection over screen time. The massing promotes an indoor-outdoor lifestyle with a central courtyard and prioritizes larger amounts of glazing, while the interior features “tech-drawers” to store technology and encourage connection. The courtyards flood the interiors with light and draw people back to the outside. Firefly not only boasts a new way of living but also provides a range of architectural styles that create a powerful identity in the region.

DTJ did the community master planning, single-family home architecture, community entry landscape experience design, and the model home landscape design.
