Cholla Vista in Paradise Valley, Arizona by KENDLE DESIGN COLLABORATIVE

Tuesday, March 26th, 2019

Article source: KENDLE DESIGN COLLABORATIVE

A canopy of angled ceiling planes radiate 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.

Birds Nest in Scottsdale, Arizona by Kendle Design Collaborative

Tuesday, January 8th, 2019

Article source: Kendle Design Collaborative

The Birds Nest Residence is characterized by strong geometric forms and materials reminiscent of mid-century modern architecture with influences from Richard Neutra and noted Arizona architect Al Beadle. The guiding principles of the modern masters are evident in the building’s clean simplicity and sophisticated integration into the site. The use of natural materials and the seamless relationship of interior to exterior spaces create an airy feeling of openness and an expansive quality. The large open space of the Great Room and its direct relationship to the adjacent pool terrace serves as the organizing principal. This tall central volume has an unobstructed visual link to the Kitchen and Dining spaces as well as to both the enclosed front courtyard and the pool terrace. All rooms, including “birds nest” on the second floor, have immediate access to a private courtyard, terrace or exterior space that give the residence an intimate scale. The native desert plants and trees serve as a counterpoint to soften the bold geometry and rectilinear building forms. The site walls are thoughtfully integrated into the landscape design creating serene courtyards while maintaining the owner’s desire for a high degree of privacy.

Escobar Renovation in Phoenix, Arizona by Chen+Suchart Studio

Friday, October 26th, 2018

Article source: Chen+Suchart Studio

Sited in the 1930’s era neighborhood known as F.Q. Story, the Escobar Renovation represents the character and flavor of one of very few areas in the young city of Phoenix, Arizona that can be called historic.  The majority of the 602 homes that comprise this neighborhood still retain the varying architectural styles that make this district unique.  Homes in this area are distinctly smaller than today’s average homes.

The Escobar Renovation is a renovation to an existing home whose architectural style can be categorized as having an English Tudor style.  With the exception of a small storage closet, this home has largely remained untouched for nearly 100 years.  As a result, the spaces of the home served a very different need indicative of that era.  The existing 1,100 square foot (SF) house was separated into many different spaces each being closed off from one another.  Codes and guidelines mandated by the City of Phoenix required that any new work to the exterior maintain the character of the historic qualities of this home and neighborhood.

Home 901 in Sabino Springs, Arizona by Kevin B. Howard Architects

Monday, October 22nd, 2018

Article source: Kevin B. Howard Architects

There are only a few instances in an architectural career where a client and an architect’s vision unify into an immaculate and complete expression of art and architecture. We were very fortunate to work with a couple who, devoted to the ideals of minimalism’s stark allure, asked us to design a house in the foothills of Tucson, Arizona, located in the profoundly diverse Sonoran Desert. The owners’ refined sense of contrast required a “modern, minimal home: a pristine box that seemed to have landed in the desert.”

Rammed Earth Modern in Paradise Valley, Arizona by Kendle Design Collaborative

Monday, September 17th, 2018

Article source: Kendle Design Collaborative

A modest single story hillside home designed for a family wishing to downsize and simplify. The feel of this home is evocative of the mid-century modern homes which once dominated the surrounding area before the McMansion craze of the last decade. Humble, natural materials such as rammed earth walls, limestone floors and Douglass Fir wood ceilings are woven inside and out in a sophisticated play of interlocking interior and exterior living spaces.
