Designed by Asia Zdziarska / ARCHEMY.LA, an award-recognized architectural studio known for its contemporary interpretations of modern desert living, the architecture reimagines mid-century modern principles through a refined, forward-looking lens.
Clean lines, open interiors, and expansive glass define the home’s design, allowing natural light to move freely throughout the space while framing sweeping views of the surrounding desert. The result is a seamless relationship between interior living areas and the outdoors.
Spanning over 4,000 square feet, The Amana is organized around open, flowing spaces designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Generous communal areas are balanced by more intimate private retreats, while outdoor terraces, a resort-style pool, and thoughtfully designed exterior rooms extend the living experience year-round—embodying renewal, possibility, and the next chapter in modern desert living.
