Bright Mid-Century Homes

The Palm Springs Desert House Exudes Classic Charm and Design

— June 25, 2018 — Art & Design
Washed in white and offering clean, minimalist lines, the Palm Springs Desert House from Jim Jennings Architecture creates a modern structural contrast against the surrounding desert landscape.

Although the house was built in 2018, the design resembles an old-school mid-century style with an eight-foot concrete wall surrounding the entire perimeter. The yard features a luxurious pool beside the private courtyard, promoting outdoor living. With a modest and clean interior, the home has large glass doors that open walls completely to the outdoors, allowing air to flow freely throughout each room. Pairing the clean structure with white and modern furniture, the designers made each room comfortable yet stylish.

Jim Jennings Architecture created the Palm Spring Desert House to make each guest feel inspired and relaxed while on vacation, with views of the surrounding mountains in each room.
