We hand-stapled every saguaro rib to the outdoor ceiling. It was a long process, but we think it was worth it.
Antique brass door locks and handmade, terra-cotta brick tiles were shipped from a local hardware store in Marrakech, Morocco.
At the rear of the home, a covered dining space also features saguaro-rib ceilings and plaster bench seats. Pendants and throw pillows sourced from markets in Mexico and Marrakech adorn the area.
The spacious covered patio at the front of the home features a tactile, saguaro-rib ceiling, built-in plaster seating, and a swing chair perfect for taking in sweeping, sunset views.
Before: We chose the land because of the sweeping views in the front and mountains in the back. We love the native vegetation, so we kept the front completely untouched and relocated any vegetation disturbed by the build.
