Sitting at an elevation of 2,995 feet with panoramic views of the Las Vegas Valley, M20 is a private residence nestled in the Nevada desert. The design for this custom residence seeks to create sculptural and experiential spaces without compromising orthogonal efficiency. Experimenting with a dissection of mass, coupled with pushing and pulling of forms, the resulting exterior is angular and bold, with sharp edges and clean lines. The long and low-slung roofline mimics the horizontality of the adjacent desert plateaus. The chamfered wall detailing surrounding the glazed openings provide protected access to views, light, and airflow.
The home is a collection of spaces, programmatically organized around a courtyard with wall-to-wall glass, which enhances the presence of natural light throughout, eliminating the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours. A study in spatial efficiency, every room is carefully calibrated to maximize usable space, with hidden storage solutions and clever built-ins to achieve a minimalist aesthetic without sacrificing functionality and comfort.
