Valle Vista

Valle Vista is a hillside residence built into the desert slope and organized around its views. Broad terraces step out from the house toward the mountains, and an infinity-edge pool runs along the main terrace so the water seems to meet the horizon.

A steel-framed trellis shades an outdoor living area made for long evenings, and a sculptural art wall turns the pool deck into an open-air gallery. Native boulders, cacti and desert planting tie the landscape back into the hillside.

The palette stays quiet, with warm stone tones, clean lines and large glass openings, so the architecture and the desert light carry the design. The terraces, pool edge and shade structures are where this home is lived in, and where every detail of the build shows.
