The state-of-the-art, 8,900-sf clubhouse at Seven Desert Mountain is a stunning sculpture of steel, stone, masonry, and pocketing glass. Heated patio floors, 40-foot cantilevered hemlock overhangs with evaporative cooling, indoor-outdoor dining and bar areas, five fire pits, two fireplaces, and two bocce courts create a family-friendly community gathering place.
Hefty stone tablets were constructed using locally sourced field stone and antique-style grout, exposing aggregates within and providing an aged-in-place sense to the modernist building. To create a complementary material hierarchy and with the goal of appearing layered rather than modular, masonry head joints were brushed and bed joints were tooled. Warmly hued concrete floors, rich wood paneling, zinc countertops, and leather- wrapped handsets provide consistent elements of natural materials.
