Indonesian influence

To impart a Zen minimalism while staying true to the natural desert, Norris integrated natural desert flora at the lot's perimeter, gradually transitioning to a minimal plant palette closer to the house.  Large boulders that play off the existing outcroppings and strong vertical elements, such as specimen saguaros and organ pipes, reappear throughout the landscape, gradually thinning as the driveway winds toward the motor court.
