This contemporary desert house was designed by Tate Studio Architects in collaboration with Madison Couturier Custom Homes, located in North Scottsdale, Arizona. An impressive exterior facade is surrounded by desert landscaping with an outdoor patio and grilling station along with a circular infinity pool at the rear of the home.
Inside, this dwelling features a great room, kitchen, formal dining room with a wine cellar, four bedrooms, and beautiful views of the desert terrain. Continue below to see the rest of this incredible home tour…
What We Love: This house in the Arizona desert features a unique sculptural aesthetic surrounded by beautiful native landscaping. Large expanses of glazing help to capture views of the surrounding desert terrain, helping to blur indoor-outdoor boundaries. We are loving the overall design of this home, with interior living spaces designed for entertaining. The main bathroom is one of our favorite spaces, with its spa-like feel and views of the outdoors.

Note: Have a look at a couple of other spectacular desert home tours that we have showcased here on One Kindesign: Impressive glass and steel dwelling immersed in the Sonoran Desert and Rammed earth home is architectural masterpiece in the Arizona desert.

Above: The main hallway runs the length of the house following the arching shape of the house. The custom console table sofas in the living room mirror the curve of the house.

Rich magenta custom cabinets and a black cherry granite countertop are complemented by lucite barstools. A floating eating counter by Flux Design Studio offers a place to take in the beauty of the site’s natural surroundings.

Above: The den is filled with items the owners have collected from their travels around the world.
Above: A perfectly circular negative-edge swimming pool serves as the focal point for the exterior patio and entertaining space. Our third curving-shaped house, this one differs from the others in that the main spaces focus inward instead of radiating outwards. This allows for added privacy and strategically capitalizes on the site’s dramatic views.
