The residence’s strong geometric forms are softened by natural materials, fostering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. The Great Room serves as the heart of the home, extending into the adjacent pool terrace, creating a sense of openness and fluidity.

Characterized by strong geometric forms, the residence seamlessly weaves together natural materials, creating a dialogue between the interior and exterior spaces. The result is an airy feeling of openness and expansiveness that defines the essence of modern living. The Great Room, a large open space, takes center stage, serving as the organizing principle with a direct link to the adjacent pool terrace.


Native desert plants and trees blend with the architecture, softening its bold forms and enhancing privacy through thoughtfully placed site walls. The design’s careful balance of form, function, and nature results in a home that integrates human habitation with the beauty of the landscape.
