This amazing modern desert home frames views of Camelback Mountain

The Ranch Mine along with Identity Construction has created this amazing modern desert home located on a uniquely shaped property at the base of Camelback Mountain in Phoenix, Arizona. The design started with a large, cantilevered roof that tilts up towards Camelback Mountain, framing views and creating a continuous link between the front porch, great room, and rear covered patio through 3 pocketing glass doors.

The roof of this solar-powered home became known as “Big Top”, a nod to the idea that family life can often feel like a circus under one roof. The layout of the social parts of the house was designed to provide a variety of ways to view the mountain.

The semi-public front porch projects out from the front of the house to grab views of the “camel head” part of the mountain, the hemlock clad ceiling of the great room tilts up to take in views of the rest of the mountain from the kitchen and dining room and 2 more pocketing glass doors open that space up to the rear covered patio that frames the same view to be enjoyed while living outdoors.

What We Love: This amazing modern desert home was designed to soak in the spectacular views of Camelback Mountain, one of the finest mountains in the valley. A fantastic swimming pool is essential for getting through the summers with the desert heat and this one is perfect for both family living and entertaining friends… especially with those views!
