Turkel Design has recently completed the Axiom Desert House, a modern house in Palm Springs, California, that draws inspiration from mid-century design.
At the front of the house is a small entertaining area with a bocce court surrounded by landscaping, and an open carport.

The front door opens to the great room, where we find the open plan living room, dining area, and kitchen. In the living room, custom cabinetry lines the wall, while a window seat connects to the outdoor space.

In the kitchen, minimalist wood cabinets have been made from reconstituted poplar, that was dyed to resemble an engineered teak. These cabinets add warmth to the space, and contrast the cool white surfaces made from Corian.

Adjacent to the dining room and kitchen is a living wall by Suite Plants, and a lift-and-slide door by Marvin, that opens to a covered patio with a fireplace, and a swimming pool.

In the master bedroom, the walls are painted in “White Picket Fence” from Dunn-Edwards, keeping the room crisp and bright.

In the bathroom, a wood vanity with integrated sinks lines the wall, which is tiled to add a soft touch of color. A clerestory windows allow natural light to filter through.

In one of the bedrooms, a murphy bed disguised as shelving, folds down over the couch, transforming into regular bed.

In another bedroom, the desk area transforms into bunk beds, with a ladder connecting the two.
