Timeless elegance meets understated opulence to embody the essence of impeccably sophisticated living in this industrial chic desert home.
Once upon a time, a King and a Mayor took put pen to paper and brought life to the home of their dreams. With the visionary collaboration of Arizona builder Desert Star Construction and Design Principal Claire Ownby of Ownby Design, the Handsome Home is a realized testament to innovative design and luxurious craftsmanship.
Stretching from the front facade throughout the interiors and cradling the pool’s edge is one of the most distinctive features of this stunning desert residence—a singular extended Rammed Earth Wall. Constructed from compressed layers of refined materials, this feature of the home provides a cultivated texture that elevates the natural beauty of both the surrounding desert landscape and the home’s structural form.
Gracefully hovering above the dining room is a delicate glass chandelier that radiates a luminous glow through the exterior walls of floor-to-ceiling glass. Casting your gaze upon this luxurious chamber reminds one of a lavish jewelry box, with each shared meal and cherished conversation taking place within transforming into the precious jewels that will live forever in the memory of this unique space.
The interiors exude a thoughtfully curated monochromatic palate, one that achieves the delicate equilibrium of masculinity, minimalism and balance. Walnut slat millwork creates a harmonious environment surrounded in glass that draws in the desert’s tranquility, allowing the homeowners and their esteemed guests to take in the breathtaking Arizona landscape beyond.
The great room furnishes sleek lines that cradle its inhabitants in an oasis of indoor-outdoor living. Majestic primary sleeping and bathing rooms are complemented by fixtures bathed in natural light. The luxury kitchen exudes a modern elegance that combines both purpose and style.
