Desert Dreaming celebrates the joys and challenges of desert living and the awe-inspiring home designs and landscapes that keep people coming back for more.

From earthen-based adobe building traditions to sleek modernism, the best desert-based design evolves in tandem with its surroundings. Featuring the four main designated deserts of North America (Chihuahuan, Mojave, Sonoran, and the Great Basin), Desert Dreaming pays tribute to embracing the joys and challenges of desert living while fostering connections to spaces and communities.

The book highlights homeowners, designers, and architects who have cultivated their own dwellings in harmony with particular places. Design advice from experts, in addition to sidebars about lifestyle subjects (think foraged desert perfumes and cocktails) enriches these insightful, inspiring stories.
