About Klima Architecture
Our project philosophy is rooted in place, from the social aspect that drives multi-generational goals, to our ecological ethos which aims our projects toward the most carbon-efficient design possible. We aim to harness nature both inside and out, by uniquely responding to our mountain and desert environments through responsible designs that grasp its beauty and respect its fragile integrity. We come from a master builder mentality, offering our clients a thorough perspective of the entire building experience. Our work has grown over the years from single-family to multi-family, commercial and craft-making. Our aim is to deliver the highest quality, most efficient and economical projects as possible.

Immerse yourself in the beauty of Slot Haus, a remarkable home in Park City, Utah. Designed by Chris Price of KLIMA Architecture, this 6,394 sq ft residence harmoniously merges innovative design with its picturesque natural setting.
Maple Haus, designed and built by KLIMA Architecture, is a remarkable residence located in Park City, Utah. This home, named in homage to the architect’s two-year-old daughter, embodies the principles of energy efficiency and sustainable design.
This house is 1:1 case study in designing, detailing, and delivering a unique, modern, efficient new way of living. The 14″ thick walls protect this family retreat all under immense vistas of both the Uinta and the Oquirrh mountain ranges.
The Axboe house sits on the north side of the Synderville Basin, Utah, overlooking the greater Park City area and the ski areas beyond. The challenge was to design a home sited naturally, accommodating a family of four, and to create a sense of connection to the mountain environment.
The Meadows Haus is designed around managing views and retaining solar access to the southern ski mountain views.
