DESIGN SPOTLIGHT

Phoenix offers a handful of signature designs that define contemporary Desert Modern Architecture; this home designed by Wendell Burnette is one of the finest we have represented.

A superb balance of mass, materials, light, scale and perforation perfectly placed on a native landscaped, gentle hillside slope. You’ll find wonderfully executed details; a wealth of minutiae to delight the connoisseur in a clean and modern design that offers a comfortable plan that plays elegantly into our desert-lifestyle.

The home was carefully renovated and restored in 2012; the new owners painstakingly following the Architect’s vision and direct oversight to co-create the final work as it is today.

Stunning city-views anchor you to the urban hub while the nearby Mountain Preserve panorama calms the soul. The private pool is a sensory experience, providing an enclave that is both dramatic and serene. The gardens were updated and recreated to naturalize the setting and to allow a seamless connection to the site. Well published and celebrated, this remains a signature design for Mr. Burnette and is widely considered to be an outstanding example of his work.

From the Architect: “Two volumes of light - one warm and one cool - one projected to the expansive horizon and one toward the canopy of the desert sky. Inspired by John Van Dyke’s ruminations on the phenomena of desert light, …the Dialogue House is a gestalt instrument for touching the full range and specificity of this light, this “place”- day and night, season to season and year to year.“
