Palm Springs-based studio o2 Architecture has designed the Rock Reach House project.
Completed in 2010, this 1,000 square foot prototype home for prefab developer Blue Sky Homes is located in the Mojave Desert of California, USA. This prefabricated home is located in an arid desert region north of Palm Spring, California. The homeowner asked for a modest size, open and adaptable floor plan that was sustainable conceived with durable materials. The design would serve as a prototype for a future line of prefabricated “system-built” homes. Emphasis was given to flexible site placement; and ensuring minimal environmental impact while maximizing view potential and required privacy.The modest 90 square meter, 2-Bedroom, 1-Bath house with seamless 30 square meter outdoor deck floats above the site on structurally efficient columns and beams of light gauge steel. This home is available for short-term rentals.
