Rounded edges, expressive wood beams and changing ceiling heights give this Desert Contemporary residence a sculptural presence. Earthy finishes and carefully placed expanses of glass bring desert light deep into the home.
Plastered walls, custom ironwork and natural stone create an architecture grounded in its surroundings. A stained-glass front door by Sam Terry sets the tone for the craftsmanship within.
