The approach

The approach

01 / 03

Arrival

A crushed-granite drive winds through saguaro and palo verde to a quiet arrival court.

02 / 03

The street front

Limestone walls, a bronze fascia and very few windows: the house keeps its view for the courtyard.

03 / 03

The threshold

A ten-foot walnut pivot door under a deep portal. Beyond it, light from the courtyard pulls you through.

Limestone, bronze and walnut.

A short palette, held to tight joints and deep shadows, so the light does the work. Move across the picture to look closer.
