The December 2010 Issue of Elle Decor featured a stunningly beautiful Jackson Hole home designed by the exquisitely talented mother/daughter(s) design team of Mary Lynn, Marie and Emily Turner at m.elle design. (Select photos are below and a recent new 2009 Aspen West End home sale that this Elle property reminds me of.  Sometimes, I just want to share beautiful home design with readers and preserve this for my own reference.)

 

 

This home reminds me of an Aspen West End home at 315 W. Smuggler built in 2009 that sold for $8.2M in late August 2010. (All photos below courtesy of Bob Bowden Properties and the Aspen Multiple Listing Service)
