The beauty of the Sonoran Desert, which seems to go on for miles, combined with the organic modernist architecture is simply arresting. Inspired by renowned landscape hotels, the intention was to create a resort-like experience that places you in a vacation atmosphere every day. Discover a truly bespoke residence where the design ethos was to create a visceral and uncompromising connection to the beautiful landscape. See Documents for Full Description and Features.
