Nestled between the vibrant Las Vegas Strip and the serene Red Rock Canyon, the home balances urban and natural elements through thoughtful architecture. Inspired by the Nevada desert’s raw beauty, the design includes a sheltered courtyard with a reflective water basin that mirrors the skyline, emphasizing tranquility and the connection between city and landscape. Locally sourced materials like sand and gravel form buff-hued concrete walls, blending the structure into its surroundings. Clever shading, perforated steel screens, and underground rooms provide natural cooling and protection from the elements. This home is a harmonious refuge, crafted to endure the desert while embracing its rugged beauty.
