Countless other specialties in the home include an impressive master suite headboard wall of 4”x16” Wedge Copper. Each bathroom becomes an alluring retreat, using Kashmere Slate, Tortuga Limestone, Indian Slate and Oceanside glass. Classic bronze Kallista plumbing fixtures are the perfect complement, especially at the bronze and Walnut Limestone vanity in the powder room. Wood wall tiles in the space produce an unique design statement. The Bali Corrugated Ceramic in the laundry room is striking. Combining rustic with contemporary elements is a design style that creates a comfortable and inviting home.

The Desert Ranch Home is a classic style that responds to the historical ranches that once characterized the Bajada of the Sonora Desert. The home is noteworthy for the steep pitched roofs and large overhangs and covered outdoor spaces that were used in the working ranch houses of the past to protect the inhabitants from the harsh sun of the desert. The need to provide protection for the home from the elements is even more pronounced today as this new Ranch Home seeks to not only provide wonderful protected outdoor living spaces but also seeks to be a good steward of our natural resources. This 4,250 square foot under roof home has multiple outdoor living spaces including a private courtyard and outdoor great room and kitchen that provide extended living space without the need to mechanically cool or heat those spaces. Outdoor living space, including a shaded pool, totals another 2,309 square feet. The materials selected for construction and mechanical systems all seek to make an exceptionally energy efficient home. These materials include insulated concrete walls, Icynene Insulation system, dual pane glass and orientation to capture winter sun. The interior of this home is a blend of rustic and contemporary design. The paradox of opposing styles is defined by simplicity intermingled with sophistication. A variety of innate materials create a distinct appeal. Wire-brushed cedar interior doors make a dramatic statement while brick pavers offer an unexpected flooring choice. Natural stone, seeded glass and rich wood add impact and exclusive lighting illuminates each space.
