Set against the desert landscape, this project reimagines a Southwest home with refined materials and modern detailing throughout. Indoors, warm wood cabinetry, dramatic stone surfaces, and custom features like a temperature-controlled wine display and moody lounge spaces add depth and sophistication. Outside, the backyard transforms into a resort-style retreat with a sculptural rock pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, and expansive entertaining areas designed to take full advantage of the views.
