Description

This one-of-a-kind compound offers off-the-grid minimalist luxury living in the heart of the high desert. A pristine three-acre parcel of desert land near Joshua Tree National Park comes fully developed for a stunning, sustainable home custom-designed by Unincorporated Associates, a New York and Los Angeles-based firm helmed by a fashion designer and an architect. Designed in harmony with its natural surroundings to inspire creativity and peace of mind, this private compound is UA’s first fully immersive residential design concept. The 3200-square-foot partially subterranean concrete residence appears to emerge from the desert floor against the backdrop of a stunning mountain range, bringing a gentle sense of order to the vast landscape. The sculptural compound, enclosed in a courtyard and powered by state-of-the-art solar technology, includes a three-story main residence, two-bedroom guest house, mineral water swimming and reflecting pools, and three-car garage with EV charging stations. The main residence features spectacular views, wet bar, media room, and expansive main bedroom suite with dressing area, water closets, and a soaking chamber. The compound’s custom furniture, cabinetry, high-end appliances, lighting, and integrated audio-visual system are part of UA’s lifestyle concept that also includes (at an additional expense) a customized apparel collection and a fully customized vintage Land Rover with an eco-friendly engine. This unique and compelling compound is sure to take its place as a masterwork alongside other significant high desert architecture.
