ARCHITECTURE
Nestled among large boulders and desert sands, this home is a true Joshua Tree getaway with a private saltwater pool/spa and outdoor shower. With no neighbours around, it's an escape from civilisation that's at one with nature and design. The floor-to-ceiling moving glass walls blur the lines between the indoors/outdoors, allowing you to take advantage of the surroundings at all times. Inside, works by local artists and famous designers merge, while the kitchen sets the scene for great meals.
The dramatic asymmetrical roof allows just the right amount of natural light in the open concept floor plans along with solar panels to heat/cool the interiors and pool. The entire home consists of high-efficiency glass framed with steel and a cantilevered roof.
PEOPLE
Designed by the owner for him and his partner as a getaway from their busy city lives they sought refuge and privacy amongst their largest inspiration - nature. Each room has movable sliding, floor to ceiling glass walls to open up to the raw barren landscapes.
PLACE
Desert Skies is located and nestled high up in the Pinon Ridge area of Western Hills Estates. The home is 92% glass amidst massive rock formations and expansive vistas of desert landscapes, indigenous plant-life (Joshua Trees, Yuccas, etc.), wildlife and electric sunsets and sunrises.
