125764 41902 Cody Mueller 1697920140 0 cfb7a592 A cody@hotelsjh.com We renovated The Hostel - one of the original buildings at the base of the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. We used surface mounted conduit to add more lighting in the guest rooms. Our Barn Light fixtures provided an ideal rustic feel in our mountain west setting, along with the industrial feel of the surface mounted conduit. The fixtures look great, are very solid, and were easily customizable to the size and color requirements for our space and design. We could not be happier with the end result. 5
