From the architect: Desert form, indigenous materials, natural light and mountain views inspire this home. Layered walls of rammed-earth, metal, concrete and glass create a playful collection of organic forms within a natural desert setting while visually articulating the various functions within.

The signature feature of this home is its floating roof canopy, the underside of which is comprised of tectonic-like forms inspired by local geology and monsoon cloud formations. More than just sculpture and protection from the elements, this canopy balances the owner’s desire for both grandeur and coziness, starting low within the interior living spaces and raising dramatically towards the 180 degree mountain view.

All lighting and mechanical devises are carefully concealed within the fissures of this feature allowing the form and materials to be the focus.

At times water-reflected light dances across the fractured planes of earth and wood while at other times it provides a Zen-like sense of calm.
