Overview

The desert provides a sense of mystery and rugged beauty that attracts architects, home owners, vacationers, and anyone looking for an escape within its arid climate. This book showcases 50 works of residential architecture from across the last few decades, each with a unique connection to the desert in which it's situated. It's a carefully curated and beautifully illustrated selection of architect-designed houses that reflects contemporary concerns about the unique challenges presented by life in the desert's sensitive environment.
