Designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings, while making its own bold statement, Hummingbird Residence exploits the natural grandeur of the desert wash traversing the site, while walls of glass and soaring roof forms reach out to capture mountain views. Social, family and entertainment zones are separated from peaceful private bedroom zones via a dramatic curved indoor bridge spanning the desert wash. A curved wall of glass welcomes views of nature and the infinity-edge pool along one side of the bridge while a gallery wall boasting artfully placed slots of natural light adorns the opposite side. Outdoor living spaces enhance the experience, creating intimate encounters with nature as well as grand festive spaces for outdoor gathering with family and friends. Building materials extend the connection to its surrounding, utilizing earth tone metal, architectural textured masonry, and copious expanses of glass to take in views while bathing the interior in soft diffused illumination. The homes warm modern interior is adorned with rich materials such as natural stone, custom millwork, and wood ceilings that visually soften while making a sophisticated statement.
