Artist Studio in the Desert

 

Sandwiched between the Saguaro National Park and the Tohono O’Odham Reservation this small residential addition is secluded away from the city center of Tucson and deeply embedded in the desert landscape. Two enclosed spaces, a workshop and artist studio, float over the desert flood plain on a raised platform which also houses several seating areas, an outdoor shower, and a dining area enclosed in a steel screen.

Involved with design from inception, I took over project management at the end of the construction documents phase and finished the project through bidding, permitting, and construction administration.

Space to Let your Hair Down

This new addition to Betty’s enables couples treatments, bridal parties, and other group bookings. The space includes a treatment room, a lounge, a steam shower, and an exterior patio screened from the street. Due to the quiet, individual experience of the rest of the spa acoustical separation was extremely important for this project.

I assisted with the production of drawings at all phases and wrote technical specifications for the project.
