Tuscon Mountain Retreat

Tucson-Mountain-Retreat-01-800x551

Inspire Notes:

This unique property has been created by an alliance of architects, craftsmen, builders and designers that work under the name Dust.

Formally founded in Tuscon Arizona, they use their intimate knowledge of the natural landscape to shape their work.

Concrete and wood abound with colourful artisanal soft furnishings. The distinct furniture is made by Dust also.

The chairs, lovely slimline benches, stools and tables. And then there’s the location…Mon Dieu! Arid and lush at the same time.

A peaceful and natural environment designed to be respected, enjoyed and shared not razed.

Sparse and beautiful allowing the building to work with the environment rather than fight it.

Can you imagine sitting here…whilst a gentle but firm breeze blows in from the large, open sliding doors. Either sitting in front of a gentle fire or waiting patiently at the dining table as delicious natural food smells drift tantalizingly under your nose…mama mia!

Check the bedrooms. Very artisanal, handmade feel about them. Hard floor. Artisanal rugs, throws and floor cushions. Great art pieces. Minimal clean African vibe.

Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. But not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.” “We will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
