Project Overview
The Joshua Tree Modern Residence is a fully custom home constructed from the ground up in a remote desert setting. The project emphasized strong architectural lines, natural light, and a direct connection between interior living spaces and the surrounding landscape.
From planning and structural execution to final finishes, the build required careful coordination of materials, systems, and outdoor amenities suited for long-term durability in a high-heat environment.
Architectural Design & Structure
The home features a modern, single-story layout with flat rooflines and large glazed openings positioned to frame desert views while maximizing daylight.
Structural work was executed to support wide spans and large sliding door systems, allowing interior spaces to open directly to exterior patios without visual interruption.
Interior Construction & Finishes
Interior spaces were built with an open-concept layout connecting the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Finish selections focused on clean lines, natural tones, and materials that complement the desert environment.
Key interior elements include:
Custom kitchen with integrated cabinetry and modern appliances
Large-format flooring for visual continuity
Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors
Minimal interior detailing to emphasize space and light
Exterior Living & Amenities
Outdoor living was a core component of the project. Exterior work was designed to extend the usable living area beyond the interior footprint of the home.
Exterior scope included:
Custom concrete pool and integrated spa
Exterior decking and patio areas
Hardscape and landscape elements adapted to desert conditions
Direct indoor–outdoor circulation from primary living spaces
Result
The completed residence delivers a modern desert retreat that balances architectural precision with comfort and functionality. The project reflects a thoughtful approach to custom home construction in a demanding environment.
