INSPIRED MODERN HOMES
ABOVE & FACING PAGE: To preserve the site's dramatic 500-year-old saguaro cactus, we integrated the home
seamlessly around the venerable succulent. The whole house is curved and designed on a radius. We specified
indigenous materials, including locally mined copper and site-quarried stone. Glass panels optimize hypnotic
mountain-desert views. The south-facing front door enjoys copper overhangs to protect residents from the
relentless sun's rays and reflect intense heat for added efficiency.
