Located in Palm Springs, California, and situated on a sloped site, the home has been split into two rectangular sections that form a ‘T’ shape.

Inside, you can see that the open floor plan has been achieved with the main living areas all sharing the same space.

The views from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors can easily be enjoyed from the entire main living/dining/kitchen area.

Next to the outdoor lounge is the home office that provides access to the master bedroom. The home office opens up at the corner to become a natural extension of the outdoor living area.

Glimpses of the views are achieved through a variety of windows in the master bedroom.

In the master bathroom, green tiles have been used to create a feature wall, and a window allows for picturesque views while having a relaxing bath.

The green tiles carry-on to the outside of the master wing, where they’re visible from the spa.

Stepping down again from the master wing is the swimming pool, surrounded by a concrete deck. A rock garden has been designed next to the pool, and views of the can be enjoyed from the sun loungers.
