TEN REASONS TO HIRE AN ARCHITECT

1. AN ARCHITECT CAN HELP YOU CREATE AND FOCUS YOUR DREAM HOUSE INTO A BUILT REALITY. Architects see the big picture. A skilled architect can help you develop and integrate your list of requirements with the other complex factors to create a unique home just for you by prioritizing your needs.

2. AN ARCHITECT IS A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL. Architects are educated, trained, and tested in a large range of areas, including aesthetic design, ergonomics, sociology, ecology, law, building codes, construction materials and technology. This breadth of knowledge allows foresight when evaluating competing requirements and restrictions.

3. AN ARCHITECT WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS WITH CREATIVE, ELEGANT SOLUTIONS. Architects are trained to make buildings both functional and beautiful. An architect will be able to show you alternatives that you might not have considered possible.

4. AN ARCHITECT IS TRAINED IN COMMUNICATION. An architect has experience effectively communicating through written word, drawing, and verbally with the key members of the project including clients, contractors, engineers, and authorities in the manner best suited to the situation.

5. AN ARCHITECT HAS EXPERIENCE. Most architects consider architecture a passion more than a vocation. They draw on past experience. They are an integral part of the design/construction community with contacts in all the fields.

6. AN ARCHITECT CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER! Architects can bring pictorial suggestions to the table and assist in decisions for space planning, materials, and finishes transforming your abstract ideas into a form you can visualize.

7. AN ARCHITECT IS COST EFFECTIVE. A well-conceived, designed, and coordinated project is more economical. Changes made on paper in the design phase are much less expensive than those made during construction.

8. ARCHITECTURE IS A GOOD INVESTMENT. Great design sells from consumer products to cities. A well designed home has a higher resale value.

9. AN ARCHITECT CAN MAKE YOUR BUILDING PROJECT ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY. Skilled architects work with the environment to create spaces that are sustainable and comply with ever demanding energy performance requirements.

10. AN ARCHITECT CAN GUIDE YOU THROUGH AN ENTIRE PROJECT AS YOUR ADVOCATE. An architect will be able to assist with every aspect of a project from choosing a site, city permitting, design review board submittals to construction administration. Whether you choose to start a project from the ground up or remodel an existing space, an architect will be able to help the project run smoothly during each stage avoiding disruptive surprises.

Why architects? Why architecture?

Eddie Jones is principal at Jones Studio Tempe, Arizona

Sometimes, I step back and remember, not everyone knows an architect. Most don't understand what the professional title fully implies. However, I’m pretty sure, in general, people think architects are smart and cool. I do. Apparently, so does my wife!

But I’m not interested in individual architects. I am interested in their collective impact on individual communities and the world. Building is very powerful, for good or for bad. But architecture—in my mind—is typically good. However, there are too many bad buildings.

How can you tell? The outside kills the street and the inside disrespects its occupants. The space within and in-between is oppressive and dull. The exterior imposes itself on the landscape, ignores environmental responsibility and, well, just takes up space. At best, a bad building is benign, nondescript and forgettable. At worst, a bad building can inflict damage; physical and intellectual damage. Let me be clear, most buildings are not examples of architecture. There are few structures qualified to be called architecture and the ratio gets more and more unbalanced with each passing year. The bad has consistently outweighed the good and this isn’t a new trend. Despite this history of architecture being outpaced by bad buildings, the influence of great architecture is undeniable. There are moments when we know our life has been enriched by the experience of a great building. It is not uncommon to feel an emotional response to a historic cathedral, a thoughtfully designed home or a new public art museum. Most cities will showcase their most admired cultural buildings regardless of an architectural era. Frank Lloyd Wright said,“The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.”

My favorite definition of architecture was made by the great 20th Century architect Louis Kahn, “Buildings shelter mankind. Architecture shelters the spirit of mankind.”

I still believe most architects aspire to achieve architecture. At least they start out that way.

A typical architect’s story begins before high school which, by definition, makes it a “calling” more than a profession. For me, I was six years old when I decided my life’s direction. Make it to college and we endure a five to six year education, broad ranging as it is exhausting. Additionally, each state requires those holding an architectural degree to apprentice in an actual practice for a predetermined number of years, usually two to three. Following internship, we take the state registration exams, equivalent to the bar exam for lawyers. Some years, only 1/3 of the students will pass the test. The test is grueling.

A passing grade allows the once young aspirant to finally call themselves an architect. Their average age is 32.

The educational gauntlet requires endurance, conviction, and commitment. Those who become architects do so because they are in love. They are inspired to make a better world.

We remain forever youthful because each new day is an exercise in the complexity of engineering coupled with the self-fulfillment of creativity. Problem solving is our job. Most of the time—not all the time—but most of the time, solving those problems is a wonderful good time. I enjoy telling students I have not worked since I graduated from college.

That said, the commitment to genuinely honor a lifetime of passion requires the highest level of perseverance. Another esteemed architect, Glenn Murcutt, warns young architects “you want to end your practice the same way you started it,” referring to initial high ethical standards and the relentless quest for design excellence.

In my opinion, the manifestation of an architect’s measure can be discerned more obviously in residential design than in commercial/industrial design. The house is an architect’s playground and design lab. Expertise is honed, theories articulated and the consequences of one’s imposed design decisions are quickly felt. Our clients’ limited budgets—they are ALWAYS limited—have to be taken seriously. It is this monetary respect and the highest of self-imposed standards which motivates us to pursue the most elusive and therefore, most valuable of all design skills… restraint. I have spent forty five years learning restraint. What to leave; what to leave out; when to insist; when to let go. These lessons are the result of longevity, experience and maturity.

You may find this surprising but I think being an old architect is a lot more fun than being a new architect. The accumulation of experience can, in itself, create opportunities to practice beyond one’s local community. Of course, any opportunity close to home allows the reexamination of familiar criteria and new interpretation. Home is the ultimate comfort zone, sufficient to inspire but also reason enough to leave.

It's not easy. One only has to understand the climactic differences between, say, Arizona and Oregon. The range of knowledge necessary to excel in different climate zones is hard earned and requires patience. Factoring in local history, culture, density, demographics, ethnicity and topography further complicates the challenge of designing in a wide variety of environments.

But these factors are essential to make elevated design decisions. Each community, each client, each site deserves a specific architectural response. Those responses are as varied as the weather. We should expect architects to invent an architecture appropriate for each situation, relying on an integrity of materials, structure and an inherent sensitivity to nature.

Bad buildings often lead to intellectual and emotional silence. In contrast, architecture encourages discussion, imagination and wonder. Meeting the commonplace requirements is not enough. Architects do more. Design matters and desire is essential for a building team to be clearly aligned and soar beyond convention.

I have heard many people, including friends, express a desire to have a home representative of their values and individualism. They are often quite passionate and have incredible ideas for bringing their vision to life. However, they assume they can't afford it. I will ask, what is the basis of this assumption? Frequently, the answer is an impression only rich people hire architects. Certainly, wealthy home buyers have the resources to hire us. However, many, if not most, will bypass a good architect and, taking the advice of a realtor, go directly to a builder… not unlike lower-income buyers. The results: an assemblage of mediocrity and conformity distinguished only by scale.

Sound harsh? It is. I would like to believe it is not my nature to be negative especially when I’m writing about my favorite subject. But, do I have your attention? The longer I practice, and the more I teach, I realize good architects are a building project’s best investment. Why use an architect? Would you enjoy an inspired environment that changes with earth's orbit? In addition, houses are expensive. Considering the number of dollars, could your personal investment benefit from having an experienced advocate? Would you like to have an ally, committed to more than simple profit, independent of all the other required entities standing to profit?

More than once, I have informed potential home buyers their most appropriate design (some say style) has not yet been built. It is the family’s originality of lifestyle combined with budget, and their site’s determinants of solar orientation, views, access, privacy, topography and size that creates the architectural idea. Could your home investment be based on a clear IDEA larger than you? What are your priorities?

8

Architects are a community asset. We are in a unique position to influence public policy, shape history and promote health, safety, and magic. We want to make a better world through architecture.

That makes us pretty cool.

This residence is a house that is seamlessly connected to the landscape. This project is inherently about the space between the topography and its architectural forms. Sited on the edge of a golf course fairway, the topography flows through the house in a manner that allows the interior spaces of the house to engage with the landscape. The roof floats above the main living spaces - creating a sense of shelter as you might find in a primitive landscape structure. The spaces are defined by the topography, the roof, rectangular volumes, and concrete landscape walls. Concrete, wood, water, boulders, and glass were used to define a palette integrated with the natural landscape. While the composition of the architectural forms reinforce the spatial connection to the landscape, the crispness of the architecture acts as a counterpoint to the natural topography.

tucson hillside house tucson, az victor sidy architect www.victorsidy.com 480.688.5599 photography: bill timmerman

Set on a prominent ridge in the foothills of the Tucson Mountains, this 2,700 square foot home is a lens through which the clients can experience the magic of the Sonoran Desert.

The architects, Victor Sidy AIA and Nick Mancusi AIA, devised the plan as two rectangular blocks intersecting at an oblique angle, positioned just below the ridgeline of the hill. The complex is sited to preserve a stand of saguaro cacti and rock outcrops unique to the area. The two rectangular blocks are connected to each other by a shaded walkway and linear water feature. This choreographed outdoor transition from the car court to the home is a touch-point to the desert that happens multiple times each day.

The home itself is clad with mill-finished steel sheets, intended to match the patinated quality of the local stones. This cladding is anticipated to richly weather over time. In contrast to the more roughly-wrought exterior, the interior of the house is clean and white, a spare frame to house the life of the residents within.

With this house, its residents are able to tune into the more subtle qualities of the desert, both through the curated framing of the views and through the home’s interaction with the sun, wind, water, and landscape.

staab residence paradise valley, az chen + suchart studios www.chensuchartstudio.com 480-332-1704 winquist photography

In this built environment, the context of the neighboring houses’ architectural language is more often than not, associated with speculative developer trends and styles, rather than an integrated understanding of the site, the views, and other opportunities. The project required a strategy which would edit out the immediate context of this neighborhood while focusing on distant views of the McDowell Mountains to the north and the valley to the south and southwest. The project sought to create a protected courtyard space for the backyard and pool area as an immediate focus for the lower level of the house in contrast to the second level’s more distant views. The house is conceived as a series of sand-blasted 12-8-16 open gradient coursed masonry walls upon which an absorptive stainless steel and silver coated glass clad volume floats.

The upstairs volume is clad in 11 gage 4’ wide stainless steel plate cut to length directly from the coil, and 1” insulated glass panels with a silver colored high performance thermal coating. The strategy of the cladding for this volume was to create an envelope that would best absorb the environment and allow for a varying perception of color and finish throughout the day.

A modern intervention in the desert. Desert House represents a forward thinking approach to desert life.

Located in Paradise Valley, Arizona, the one acre site exists within a single family residential neighborhood, surrounded by textured desert mountains to the south, west, and northeast. The pure structure cuts a clean sharp edge through the revegetative desert landscape.

The program focus in the renewed design is to perforate the original frame of the existing home to allow a vibrant, natural daylighting experience. Views radiate through the home. The additive program refines the circulation experience and relationships between uses for a spontaneous and organic residential experience.

The layering of elements from the natural “filtering� of the desert landscape, to the exterior materials of zinc metal siding and glass set as a dramatic relationship of a refreshing living experience.

Singing Sand is an interpretation of local traditions and forms grounded in climatic response. The materials are a recollection of every seaside village. The cottage’s dominating, high pitched gable roof deflects the endless rain to a silver necklace of gutters and rain chains carrying the water to underground storage until it is needed for the dry season.

Unlike the neighboring structures of opaque wood walls occasionally interrupted by rectangular window openings, Singing Sand is a glass pavilion, integrating foreground, ocean, horizon, and sunset with the comfort and protection of a honey colored interior.

dancing light paradise valley, az kendle design collaborative www.kendledesign.com 480.951.8558 photography by alexander vertikoff

Desert form, indigenous materials, natural light, and mountain views inspire this home. Layered walls of rammed-earth, metal, concrete, and glass create a playful collection of organic forms within a natural desert setting while visually articulating the various functions within.

The signature feature of this home is its floating roof canopy, the underside of which is comprised of tectonic-like forms inspired by the local geology and monsoon cloud formations. More than just sculpture and protection from the elements, this canopy balances the owner’s desire for both grandeur and coziness, starting low within the interior living spaces and rising dramatically towards the 180-degree mountain view.

All lighting and mechanical devices are carefully concealed within the fissures of this feature, allowing the form and materials to be the focus.

A passive feature includes interior spaces arranged about a central outdoor atrium, allowing modulation of daylight and breezes to provide natural interior comfort.

Natural light brings this home to life, seeping in through carefully articulated crevices or reflecting off the strategically located pool, constantly transforming the mood of this home. At times water-reflected light dances across the fractured planes of earth and wood while other times providing a Zen-like sense of calm.

sanctuary residence paradise valley, az tsontakis architecture www.ElevateYourPlans.com 480.874.2288 photography by scott sandler

This Paradise Valley hillside home in the Sanctuary contains 6,080 sq. ft. of livable area with 5,358 on the main level and an additional 732 sq. ft. on the lower level.

Both the rocky hillside terrain and the pool are essential characteristics of the home.

It embraces a modernist ideal.

The complexity of a single family house program can be abstracted and stripped to its essentials by using strictly rectangular/geometric forms.

The overall form, when contrasted with the steep slopes and rocky nature of the site, makes a deeply meaningful statement about the difference between the built and natural environments.

The pool embodies this concept and brings the geometry of the home to the exterior.

Its long, linear shape contrasts with the steepness of the hillside creating a moment of appreciation for both the natural site and the built home.

We have also demonstrated how a modern home can be warm and livable.

As well, the interior of the home serves as a background to the main focus which is the views to the exterior.

The design objective for this home was to create a personal expression of a home with both visual and physical connections to the lake. Set back from the street, it allows for a specific, planned arrival sequence that commences with entry through a custom-designed gate. The experience continues as visitors proceed to the covered entry and the oversized entry door. The home features a layered roof which provides large overhangs for protection from the harsh summer sun and high clerestory windows which allow beautiful natural light to flood the interior. The orientation of the home captures stunning views of the lake, close and distant mountains, and the golf course from all main livable spaces. The entry door is the first of many incredible connections to the lake, overlooking a raised four-sided negative edge spa and a 37-foot-wide negative edge pool. The great room, entertainment/game room and master suite all contribute to the lake experience with large sliding glass doors which expand the interior livable space into an indoor/outdoor experience like no other.

The second level features a terrace with spectacular views of the lake and beyond.

Each upper level bedroom shares the same amazing views.

This contemporary hillside home was inspired by the given terrain of the site and the spectacular 270º views that in essence are the artwork for the home. The architecture is clean and edited to keep the focus on the views. On the one side of the home you have a zen garden set against the cut into the mountain which creates a quiet personal space in contrast to the expansive views on all the other sides of the home. The approach to the home is split in two levels with one driveway taking the guests up to an auto court that sits atop the homeowner’s garage below. The cars are then separated from the livable part of the home by a thick and curved stone feature wall that forms the anchor for the glass stair that establishes the two levels of the home. Sliding and pocketing doors and windows merge inside living with outside living virtually dissolving the inhabitants into a total experience of their home with site.

prairie pine flagstaff, az urban design associates www.urbandesignassociatesltd.com 480.905.1212 photography by thompson photographic

This contemporary residence was inspired by the amazing Northern Arizona site, while still taking cues from Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie Style. Long Horizontal lines achieved by layered roof structures, complimentary natural stone details, vertical masses, and floor to ceiling glass, all helped us usher traditional prairie architecture into the modern age.

The golf course lot drops steeply from the street, down to a community park. There are spectacular views south through a layered canyon and north to snow-capped mountains. A semi-open kitchen, dining, and living room compose the main floor. These rooms focus outward through the treetops and toward the distant scenery. Covered decks open to the living spaces, inviting the woods in and encouraging visitors to circle around the dramatic, outdoor fireplace. The lower level, on the other hand, leads to the forest floor and a stream that meanders to the lake.

The mountain home offers the warmth of stone and heavy timber architecture, while mixing clean contemporary lines and metal accents. It is the quintessential summer retreat for a sophisticated couple.

desert prairie scottsdale, az drewett works www.drewettworks.com 855-373-9388 photography by werner segarra

Located near the base of Scottsdale landmark Pinnacle Peak, the Desert Prairie is surrounded by distant peaks offering the potential for spectacular views as well as boulder conservation easements which would be the greatest challenge of the site. Unique in terrain and shape, the building envelope was in close proximity to adjacent homes. These unique challenges initiated a truly unique piece of architecture requiring complex planning to weave among the boulders and still maximize the site lines available in this luxury golf community. The owners were agnostic regarding style, yet wanted a warm palate with clean lines. The result was a desert interpretation of the prairie style with materials that meet the surrounding desert with great harmony. The home’s Wrightian vibe displays stunning horizontals and extensive use of indigenous materials.

Copper, along with limestone and quartzite blend into a low-slung, highly protected, and intimate home. Sandblasted vein-cut stair-stepped limestone walls and honed limestone floors transition seamlessly between indoors and out creating spaces that morph from interior to exterior and compel the visitor to sit and soak up the surrounding vibrant desert colors. Custom cabinetry, light fixtures, and furnishings finish this home to quiet perfection.

sabino springs home tucson, az kevin b howard architects www.kbharchitect.com 520.322.6800 photography by matt winquist and robin stancliff

Devoted to minimalism’s stark allure, the owners required a ‘modern, minimal home, a pristine box that seemed to have landed in the desert.’ Protecting the owners’ collection of art and modernist furniture contrasted with the desire of an open plan that took advantage the desert vistas. These diverging goals resulted in the elevation of the major living spaces to the upper floor. A programmatic shift reduced the footprint and construction impact and created the need of vertical movement.

The protective measures of the gallery space drove the design, inspiring a formal arrangement of shadow boxes with deeply recessed glass panes. The interior stair acts as a tectonic centerpiece, contrasting the formal execution of the main atrium while matching its clarity and refinement in detailing. This Atrium houses the bulk of the owners’ art collection and connects the upper and lower floors of the residence. The height allows the living spaces to breathe and allows the art to be viewed from different positions in the house. A single continuous skylight centered down the middle of the gallery marks the passage of time without harming the cherished art held within.

The main living and dining spaces face south, framing the view of the desert below in a perfect unobstructed vista.

desert breeze scottsdale, az dale gardon design www.dalegardondesign.com 480.948.9666 photography by Jason Roehner & Kyle Niemier

The 5300-square foot home was designed to have the floor plan uniquely configured to provide all the Primary Living spaces at the second level, and all the secondary Bedroom/Bath/Recreation Room at the first level. This floor plan “inversion” provides unbelievable panoramic views that would not have been possible with a conventional floor plan design. Expansive windows and doors were strategically placed taking advantage of natural light throughout the day and creating plenty of Outdoor Living spaces with great Indoor/Outdoor connectivity. The home is also axially aligned with Pinnacle Peak, Camelback Mountain, and McDowell Mountain peak providing enriching daytime and nighttime panoramic views in many directions.

The exterior design and massing is complete with a front “porch” and broad shaded roofs reminiscent of regionally appropriate Ranch homes. The exterior materials reflect the character of Western Regional Ranch Architecture but with a Contemporary interpretation and current siding materials that provide longer lasting durability of aluminum, but with the richness of the warm wood tone. The metal standing seam roof provides a striking contrast to the earth tone taupe stucco walls. 32 solar roof panels are skillfully hidden above the primary sloping roof.

The home was constructed with SIP (Structural Insulated Panels) roof and wall panels, rather than the traditional method of drywall construction, which come prefabricated, saving on on-site construction costs. Other advantages are energy efficiency, high levels of insulation, reduced product waste, and structural stability.

desert mountain residence scottsdale, az brissette architects www.brissettearchitects.com 480.596.3882 photography by mark spomer

This custom-built home of simple elegance began when the homeowner reached out to 5 residential architects to create a conceptual design responding to the clients’ specific program and criteria. It was a design competition. The homeowners have a flair for custom home building and design and have built multiple homes worldwide. Brissette Architects was selected and praised for carefully listening to the clients’ needs and providing creative solutions expressing the program. The focus was to incorporate the natural site elements and views to create a seamless indoor/outdoor living experience. The design was to be simple, expressive, and somewhat minimalist in terms of materials and other embellished elements. The views incorporate the surrounding Sonoran Desert, with a stunning Phoenix city light view through the home via the outdoor patio. The fireplace was designed in a cylinder shape to play against the rectilinear great room, as do the exterior cylindrical forms play against the rectangular masses. There was a need to be especially cognizant and conscious of the extreme drainage challenges, and we create a lasting solution with complex drainage easements. This place of Simple Elegance in Desert Mountain, Arizona remains a favorite place to call home for our clients.

modern farmhouse phoenix, az higgins architects www.higginsarch.com 480.990.8897 photography by ian denker

Set on an irrigated one acre lot this home was designed to evoke the pastoral roots of the areas dairy farms that once dotted the North Central part of Phoenix. Although recently constructed, the home appears as a conglomeration of simple gabled out-buildings that are connected by lower sloping metal shed roofs. The main “older” living volume is articulated with a banded brick pattern while its’ interior space is defined with salvaged barn beams giving the “original” home a unique depth and aged character. The rear of the home features a “cement pond” looking pool with attached guest house and cabana.

The side entry garage utilizes the vent cupola as a skylight for the attic storage area.

Banded grass strips replicate the once present banded fields of alfalfa and trees march through the driveway providing shade to parked cars. Warehouse light fixtures highlight the doors. A shed roof, knee braced to the south facing wall, protects the wooden doors that appear to open like an old stable.

Bi-folding doors connect the kitchen to the outdoor living room at the west side of the home. A studded vinyl covered pantry door designed by Bouton and Foley interiors ties in perfectly with the brass strapped hood and range top.

Brick, barn doors and old wooden ceiling beams give the illusion of a covered patio now being used as a hallway entrance to the master suite.

prairie home scottsdale, az clint miller architect www.clintmillerarchitect.com 480.889.4660 photography by bradley wheeler

Desert Prairie embraces the McDowell Mountains.

Situated on a steep slope above golf fairways in Scottsdale Arizona. This Prairie design embraces its site by gently following the contours of the site. To avoid a large cut into the Mountain and scarring the site, the home maintains a shallow front to back distance.

The outcome is a bold horizontal plan, employing tradition Prairie massing-arrangement. To this end the main room and kitchen occupy the central part of the home. This area introduces a break from the horizontal with a vertical emphasis created by elevating the roof and the ceiling. Window composition, corner glass details and eyebrow treatments all lend to the Iconic Prairie influence.

The home owner purchased the lot for both the distant views of Scottstale and the fairway below. As an avid golfer, she enjoys seeing players at the nearby tee box, also fun to watch private jets land and take off from the Scottsdale airport. All this lends to a compelling home.

One of the owner’s desires was to create a home with an ‘old world’ feel that exhibited a sense of strength and permanence. To accomplish this, they chose a concept that was Mediterranean in character.

The entrance is composed of an octagonal stone tower with a view through the great room to the rear yard via an expansive Hope’s steel window. To the left of the foyer is the master suite. To the right leads past the dining area to the kitchen featuring two heavy wood beams that support a clerestory gallery above and connect the breakfast area to the family room through the kitchen.

The family room features a fireplace and leads to a large covered patio with access to the rear yard. A circular stone stair tower leads to the upper level where the junior master/guest room is located along with an ‘Irish Pub’. Descending this circular stair provides access to a wine cellar and a ‘New York Night Club’ that is accessible through a ‘secret door’.

The rear yard features an extensive water feature/pool area that includes a ‘swim through’ island. The separate guest house connects to the pool by way of a swim up bar.

Sever Design Group Architects | Conceived for a beautiful high-desert lot with many massive boulders. The large boulder in the driveway defined circulation for the autos. Guests are greeted at the street by a radial, motorized rolling gate clad with copper accents.

Sited with 180 degrees of Troon Mountain views to the north and 180 degrees of city lights.

Built for permanence using masonry, steel and glass. The two steel V columns in the great room support the massive 60’-0” long steel beam to allow for a 50’-0” wall of pocketing glass doors. Opening to the large patio guests are wowed by the city views, pool and firepit.

Modern design was a program requirement and the materials used are low maintenance and timeless. Being car enthusiasts the garage was an important space. Air conditioning and 2 color metallic epoxy paint finish really makes the space habitable and pop with detail. Copper clad garage doors finish off this space nicely.

desert contemporary paradise valley, az craig wickersham architect www.craigwickersham.com 480.609.6766 photos by james l. christy

"North Scottsdale has a spectacular range of mountains with some of the most pristine Sonoran Desert landscape. It's no wonder so many people are drawn to the beauty and natural splendor here. This is true of my clients for these two high-end custom homes.

The initial process always begins with desire. In this case, the desire to live in the most beautiful area of Scottsdale: at the base of Pinnacle Peak Mountain. This icon of the desert has been admired and thankfully protected since the early days of development.

That wisdom and foresight has created an opportunity of fulfillment. For my clients, the fulfillment is about lifestyle and views.

In the design of these two homes, the desire became broad sheltered views with indoor-outdoor living both with the mountain, and with the expansive vistas. Also, my clients desired a rich and timeless expression of Desert Contemporary. To make this happen, all natural, all desert colors are balanced together. The stone and copper, native to the desert, create the "touch" with the land, and the dark-tinted glass and broad overhangs provide shelter. Outdoor living is made easy with walls of sliding glass."

Architecture is about creating a journey of discovery. “I think about each project, as if I am making a movie. What do I see? What occurs, and in what order? How does the procession thru the spaces make me feel? There are all these emotions that happen throughout the journey, and how do we capture them.� Being sensitive to both the client and the environment the residence is located in are a big part of our design philosophy. With a color palette of grays both indoors and out, this home features an open plan that is comfortable for the owners, and welcoming for large groups of guests. Hand painted panels brighten the patio and bring a touch of desert flora indoors. Beyond the circular entry, the open floorplan is spacious and bright. The kitchen, dining area and great room are all defined by lighted ceiling coves. The kitchen island countertop comprises both black and white quartz. Behind the cooktop the led lighted backsplash casts a gentle glow; its circular pattern echoes the shape of the rotunda. The matching glass panel in the island conceals the sink when the homeowners are entertaining. Just off the great room the office features motorized cabinetry to conceal the desk area while the owners are entertaining.

lakes home tempe, az architekton www.architekton.com 480-894-4637 photography by bill timmerman and camerawerks

A new home for a family of four was built on the last vacant lot in the 30-year-old Lakes Neighborhood in Tempe. The goal was to create a warm, livable, sustainable contemporary home which could evolve and last over a family’s lifetime. A modest budget and small site led to a very efficient stacked rectangular plan that negotiated the site’s 16’ differential between the street and lake. The house takes advantage of the north/south orientation with a wrapping envelope that is opaque on the east and west elevations and provides deep solar shading on the south. A hyper-programmed masonry container helps define a courtyard at street level and slips through the envelope and cantilevers towards the lake. The resulting design yields a private low-scaled street presence with an interior courtyard on the south and a dramatic composition of solids and voids to the neighborhood’s lake front to the north.

cattletrack residence scottsdale, az poetzl architecture + design www.poetzlad.com 480.338.1632 photography by bill timmerman

The Cattletrack Residence is a remodel of an existing dated southwestern adobe style home located on a private 1-acre lot in middle of Scottsdale, Arizona. The main spaces of the house spatially open up to each other as well as expanding to the outside desert environment. The spaces form a fluid entity creating a variety of spatial situations. The main front entry door is a custom steel pivot door that is approximately 8’-6” wide X 8’-0” tall. Due to its giant size, a pedestrian door was created and name the “hobbit door”. The dining room offers a glass garage door that extends the interior space to the outside covered patio and outdoor kitchen. On the exterior, the stucco was smoothed out and recolored to match the surrounding desert environment, new rusted steel architectural elements, and the implementation of low water/maintenance landscaping. The materials used throughout the interiors include custom plaster feature walls, a chalkboard wall, raw steel elements (ie room threshold openings, tv/fireplace entertainment wall), exposed barn wood ceiling fly over w/ indirect lighting, a Bulthaup kitchen with a custom concrete island countertop, and exposed and polished original concrete floor to create a visual book of the home’s construction history.

camelback views scottsdale, az cw architecture www.cwarchitecture.net 480.264.7273 photography by phil johnson and connie white

Situated on a narrow property with magnificent views of Camelback Mountain, the home's layout and massing were tailored to maximize these views. A cantilevered entry trellis draws you into a glass entry courtyard towards a large offset pivot glass door. As you enter the house, the mountain views are focal and the interior/ exterior spaces appear seamless with floor to ceiling glass window walls at all common spaces and the master suite. These glass walls are protected from the sun with large cantilevered overhangs that express as strong horizontal lines against the natural desert forms. Complimenting these horizontal roof lines are a series of vertical stone walls that slice through the house and further orient the view towards Camelback Mountain. These walls carry through the house to create a rhythm and hierarchy to the interior experience by creating visual relief in the volume to define the interior spaces.

These honed basalt stone walls are complemented in the house with Ipe wood siding accents set against a light stucco base. To soften the house from becoming too sterile, natural materials have been used throughout the exterior and interior of the house to create a livable modern environment.

Cradled by the striking scenery intrinsic to Arizona’s Southwestern landscape, this modern hillside home is defined by its ability to capture the warmth and intimacy of everyday life without sacrificing its contemporary design. The Paradise Valley residence, located at the base of the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, is strategically nestled into the side of the mountain with a copper roof that is supported by hand laid stone masses. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the internal spaces with natural light which accentuates the client’s diverse collection of art and furniture. By prioritizing clean lines within its structure and a personalized interior, this home’s design is able to accommodate an urban lifestyle within a natural desert setting.

starlight cabin coconino county, az studio ma www.studioma.com 602.251.3800 photography by bill timmerman

Located in the Ponderosa Pine forest of Northern Arizona, Studio Ma’s design for this 2,800 sf weekend cabin getaway responds to the biophilic and resilient qualities of a beautiful yet fragile environment. Taking its inspiration from the pinecone, the design of the cabin embodies the nature of its place in this forested highland region.

Fire is an integral part of the ecology of the forest. Similar to the tough, yet regenerative outer layer of the pinecone, the cabin’s outer walls and roof are wrapped in rusted metal siding to resist the effects of wind-blown embers, the color of which is similar to the bark of the surrounding trees.

The interior presents a warm and open experience with a centrally located kitchen, double-height living space, and three porches, connecting each living space directly to nature in a variety of settings and orientations without damaging the fragile forest understory. Interior walls and ceilings are faced in stained plywood paneling, the vertical joints of which are covered with wood battens, echoing the standing-seem pattern of the rusted metal cladding.

The result is a cabin that creates a rustic yet modern camp-like experience responding to the unique qualities of the surrounding forested landscape.

Vision was to create a sophisticated and elegant setting for entertaining small and large groups, as the site plan with three courtyards of differing characters; and the interior development is tailored. In addition this custom home was to display and celebrate their fine contemporary art collection; and with expansive walls, sculpture niches, museum-quality lighting, and exterior pads for monumental pieces.

The 2 acre site in Paradise Valley and a 7,500 square feet program provided the flexibility to implement these visions, while creating a pleasant ambiance for a couples’ daily living. Site and floor plans are organized with a 4’-0� grid that provides an implied order throughout the exterior and interior spaces. Client desired to live on one level, but there are opportunities for guests to access upper levels to experience the home from different vantage points. Interior spaces have varying ceiling heights to bring in daylighting, frame strategic views, and set aside some intimate moments.

Exterior walls are of a bearing pre-glazed white masonry with a grid pattern. Fascia and curved roof forms are clad in flat-seamed metal panels. Glazing is insulated panes with operable units for natural ventilation. Interior walls are smooth and millwork of a white-washed Birds Eye Maple. Floors are typically terrazzo with zinc divider strips, vinyl at the kitchen and bathrooms, and carpet at bedrooms.

Features included a computerized light-switching system, solar cells to trigger automatic blinds at clerestories, a dumbwaiter, and commercial-grade kitchen.

During the winter, the giant stainless steel shingles of the living room roof befriend the whiteness of snow while its perforated geometric edge encourages a veil of icicles. Subordinate buildings are clad in beautiful raw steel, rusted for several days face down on a “casting bed” of moist grass before installation.

As architects, we hope the results of our collaborative efforts qualify as architecture.

Sometimes we are graced with the good fortune of exceptional craftsmanship, which yields a building quality proudly described as “furniture.” Then, there are those extremely rare projects where the owner, contractor, sub-contractor, and architect come together in a spirit beyond their individual visions and soar to a level of built excellence, which can only be described as a “jewel box.”

A canopy of angled ceiling planes radiates out towards the expansive city and mountain views while defining the various volumes of the home. These richly pigmented roofs also condition the exterior and interior living spaces from the sun while contrasting against the sandy tones of the exterior which blend naturally with the backdrop of camelback mountain. Dynamic volumes of space define the separate zones of the great room and expand seamlessly into the front yard and lush garden backyard—heightening the feeling of living intentionally within nature.

The combined kitchen and dining room offers distinct relationships to nature with the ability to behold a steep face of rock to the west or overlook the sweeping city below to the east. Additionally, sliding glass openings choreograph the flow of air and light, allowing the home to become an extension of nature. Upstairs, the art studio is bathed in light from the sizable windows while offering views upwards to the peaks of camelback mountain and into the treetops of the flourishing garden below. The terrace provides a serene opportunity for an early morning ritual of observing the sky awaken with golden colors that contrast against the sleepy blue mountains.

Our Cholla Vista Residence is the perfect example of how Kendle Design Collaborative believes a modern home should be, livable and warm, seamlessly merging the interior and exterior of the home into one exceptional space.

Positioned near the base of iconic Camelback Mountain, “Outside In” is a modernist home celebrating the love of outdoor living Arizonans crave. The design inspiration was honoring early territorial architecture while applying modernist design principles.

Dressed with undulating negra cantera stone, the massing elements of “Outside In” bring an artistic stature to the project’s design hierarchy. This home boasts a re-entrant pocketing door which unveils virtually the entire home’s living space to the exterior pool and view terrace. A timeless chocolate and white palette makes this home both elegant and refined. Oriented south, the spectacular interior natural light illuminates what promises to become another timeless piece of architecture for the Paradise Valley landscape. Winner of numerous design awards, Outside In was recently named “Home of the Year” at the 2019 Best in American Living Awards by the National Association of Home Builders.

desert prairie residence scottsdale, az tsontakis architecture www.ElevateYourPlans.com 480-874-2288 scott sandler photography

This home takes many cues from the Prairie Style, made famous by Frank Lloyd Wright and others in early 20th Century Oak Park, Illinois and adapts it to suit the desert and the times. The chief differences lie in the availability of materials and the standard way of building homes in Arizona. Arizona’s proximity to Mexico makes cantera stone a readily available and appropriate material to use. Its soft quality allow it to be cut in many different ways. In this case, the material has been handled to suit the architecture of the home. It is cut into 18” long pieces of varied widths and is stacked in a pattern that emphasizes the horizontal throughout the house; recalling Frank Lloyd Wright’s used of Roman brick over standard sized bricks. The vertical joints are dry while the horizontal joints are laid with a dark mortar. In addition, 2x wood stud bearing walls form the structure of the home; this construction method allows for flexibility in the handling and laying of the stone. For example, pilasters are furred out of wood and cladded in stone, near the top of the column an eight inch deep recess is carved inside and a light installed to create dramatic exterior lighting. The quality of the stone, combined with the typical construction methods in the valley, work to create a unique home with a cohesive architectural character in line with the Prairie Style of the early 20th Century.

The contemporary one-level is set on just over an acre of Mummy Mountain Norte.

Built by Salcito Custom Homes and Salcito Construction Co. (salcito.com), the 3,843-square-foot home includes two bedrooms and a convertible third, her study; four bathrooms; an aviation-themed poolside study for him; a workout room adjacent to the three-car garage; and an integral one-bedroom guest house, also poolside.

“When approaching the main entry, [the front door] feels connected to the home and integrated into the glazing system, not intended to stand out”. “A wonderful 5-foot-wide offset pivot door gracefully embraces you and draws you into the entry.”

For additional intrigue, the 500-pound door is set on an angle beneath a cantilevered roof, and some of the windows have been acid-etched, making them opaque.

Just inside, the space eloquently expresses its dramatic dialogue of hillside and home.

“The view from the entry of the home is twofold: It captures the beauty of the preserve behind the home and creates a stunning pool courtyard, which is private and secluded from the adjacent neighbors,” Wetzel explains.

This lifestyle-driven environment is united by crisp angularity, simple shapes, massing and layering, and a warm contemporary palette of materials and neutrals. Vivid colors contrast with the plan’s rational geometry and subtle tones. And, five custom fireplaces—each related to the function and scale of its space—provide another unifying theme.

Inside the home is adorned with an assortment of pitched and embossed ceilings all cast in light fresh colors celebrating the freshness and delight of each space.

shade villa scottsdale, az urban design associates www.urbandesignassociatesltd.com 480.905.1212 photography by scott thompson

A couple from the east coast visited Arizona for years, in hopes of buying the perfect home. Instead, they found the perfect lot. It was off a golf course, with amazing mountain and city-light views. The problem was, on the lot was a 1980’s patio home.

This existing residence was an outdated, Santa Fe style home. It was very nondescript with boxy, closed-off rooms. The solution was to rearrange the existing spaces to achieve a seamless floor plan and add a modest addition to the back. All walls were stripped to the studs, and the sunken living room was brought-up to the rest of the structure. The kitchen was pushed to the rear, so it could open to the reimagined great room.

The patios and pool mostly stayed intact, while a fire pit and outdoor kitchen were added. In front of the home, an elegant entry courtyard was created. It featured a “secret garden” gate, trellis, and sculpture garden.

Sizing the spaces for intimate entertaining and day-to-day living allowed us to fit everything on the small site. This is a perfect example of Jewel Box Architecture: The home might not be large, but the special still shines through the details.
