About This Project

Pleats is a striking 1,850 square foot residence nestled in the picturesque foothills of the Phoenix Mountain Preserve. This innovative three-sided courtyard house showcases a harmonious blend of modern design and natural beauty, with a foundation salvaged from the original structure, expertly reimagined to accommodate a more functional layout. The redesign introduces essential living spaces, featuring a spacious master suite that enhances the overall livability of the home. At the heart of Pleats, a new gabled volume emerges, thoughtfully designed to capture breathtaking mountain views while fostering a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. This is realized through the incorporation of an expansive great room, which opens to a meticulously crafted outdoor space shaded by a perforated metal patio cover. This feature not only provides respite from the intense Arizona sun but also creates a visual connection between the strong, sunlit exterior and the inviting interi. The design aesthetic of Pleats is inspired by the iconic Saguaro Cactus, with the exterior enveloped in corrugated metal that echoes the pleated form of the cactus itself. This distinctive choice not only serves an architectural purpose but also enhances the home’s integration into its desert landscape. The gabled entry is adorned with a patterned design that adds an artistic touch and invites visitors into the warm embrace of the home. Completing the property is a strategically positioned garage and workshop, nestled discreetly behind the main living area, ensuring the integrity of the courtyard layout. The craftsmanship evident in every aspect of Pleats reflects a commitment to quality and attention to detail, resulting in a residence that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This home stands as a testament to modern design principles, offering a unique living experience in one of Arizona's most beautiful settings.
