Epitomizing Aidlin Darling Design's commitment to creating soulful environments, this beautiful monograph illuminates the design process for High Desert Retreat, a residence tightly nestled into a constellation of boulders on a bluff overlooking the Coachella Valley in Southern California.

Starting with the question “How to create a residence within this beautiful desolate site while also creating a respectful compliment to the existing ecology”, Aidlin Darling Design created a soulful environment on a bluff in the high desert. Overlooking the Coachella Valley, the resulting structure nestles tightly into a constellation of existing boulders. The design is exceedingly crisp in its geometry, providing an intentional contrast to the organic forms of the desert. This book takes the reader through the journey from design conception to the realization.
