Set within a ravine of monumental boulders, Maman emerges as a sculptural study in concrete, stone, and glass. A board-formed entry wall opens to an infinity pool reflecting the mountain’s face, while firelight animates the terrain. Inside, raw stone planes and a sunken living room define a space where architecture and landscape converge in quiet, deliberate harmony.

The space
Cradled within a hidden ravine of ancient boulders, *Maman* reveals itself at the end of a winding granite approach—a journey that feels more like discovery than arrival. The path threads between towering rock walls before unveiling a sculptural retreat seemingly carved from the desert itself: raw, elemental, and deeply connected to its terrain.

A board-formed concrete entry wall anchors the structure, its grain echoing the textures of the canyon beyond. Beyond it, an infinity-edge pool stretches toward the boulder mountains, its mirrored surface capturing their reflection in liquid stillness. A firepit set beside the pool draws guests outward at dusk, where the horizon burns and the desert quiet deepens.

Inside, architecture and geology intertwine. Raw stone surfaces, polished concrete, and warm timber define the interiors, while expansive panes of glass frame the surrounding ravine. At the heart of the home, a sunken living area invites gathering and contemplation—an intimate space recessed into the landscape itself.

Bedrooms are tucked into the rock, offering secluded sanctuaries of calm and light. Every detail honors material honesty and restraint, crafting an atmosphere of both shelter and openness.

Maman is not merely a residence but a meditation on desert form and stillness—an architecture born from stone, silence, and sky.
