Architect Lloyd Russell has designed and developed a sustainable home design on the desert of Pioneertown, California. The minimalist house which is nicked as the Ultimate Desert Structure, is built upon recycled materials, thus making the architecture as an eco friendly one.
An essential in the sandy hotspot, the innovative canopy house was designed to passively regulate the home’s temperature threefold – first, to reflect the sun’s rays and heat away from the home; second, to shade the house; and third, to act as a wind buffer, allowing the cooling breeze to blow through the structure. The 1,600-sq.-ft. main house features rusted corrugated-steel walls with contemporary, wide expanses of glass that slide open to bring the outdoors in and further cool interiors. Via
