Red Rock — Shaping Harsh Desert Climate into a Courtyard Home Retreat
Red Rock sits on a Las Vegas, NV, United States parcel that looks east to the Strip and west to Red Rock Canyon. Faulkner Architects shapes this 2024 house as a low, earthbound composition that leans into the harsh desert climate rather than resisting it. Concrete, water, and shaded courts work together so daily life tracks the shifting light, wind, and temperature through the day and across the seasons.
