Desert farmhouse

Posted on Thu, 16 Jan 2014 by midcenturyjo

Modern family needs and aged Mediterranean patina and all of this is Scottsdale, Arizona. Based on a rural farmhouse the home surrounds a central courtyard with pool providing ample opportunity to tie the inside to the the out. A series of intimate rooms not large open plan areas ensures the home, though large, is on a more human scale. New yet old, relaxed yet sophisticated. By Oz Architects with interiors by David Michael Miller Associates.

The house is way too big for my taste. But give me the kitchen. I could live in that kitchen.

Interesting building, it's probably a lot of fun to navigate through. While there are few pieces here and there that work – the low couches, for instance – the deco decisions are a bit off. Too many over-done statement pieces are mixed in, just too much altogether. A serious weeding out would help immensely. First to go — those bulky wooden coffee tables! Then, different drapes…

There are some great details here and there but to me it lacks personality. I love houses that you can tell a little bit about the occupants.
