Set within a 3-acre plot in a hot, dry climate, this retreat is a lush reset from the arid surroundings. Native and drought-tolerant plants create a rich landscape, offering shade, color, and calm. A serene manmade waterbody forms the heart of the site, cooling the air and reflecting the sky. An oasis space, defined by shaded pavilions and natural materials, offers moments of quiet retreat and communal gathering. This design weaves nature and structure into a sanctuary that restores both body and mind a thoughtful response to climate and context, where every element contributes to rest, reflection, and renewal.
