The unique opportunity and challenge for the Joshua Tree project was to enable the architecture to prioritize views. Set in the valley between Mummy and Camelback mountains, two iconic landforms located in Paradise Valley, Arizona, this lot “has it all” regarding views. The challenge was answered with what we refer to as the desert pavilion. This highly penetrated piece of architecture carefully maintains a one-room deep composition. This allows each space to leverage the majestic mountain views. The material palette is executed in a panelized massing composition. The home, spawned from mid-century modern DNA, opens seamlessly to exterior living spaces providing for the ultimate in indoor/outdoor living.

This living room remodel continues the tile from the kitchen and ding room with a beautiful patterned rug for comfort. The furniture and style of this space is relatively simple but you'll find multiple pops of color and design throughout.

This large blank wall in the living room called for a decisive piece of art. The blackened steel mural is an artistic abstraction of weathered leaves.
