Unveiling the Ultimate Modern House Located in Palm Springs (House Tour)
Inspired by the conventions of a boutique hotel, Kovac Design Studio administers an array of design elements that cater to its clients’ desires to have a modern house that celebrates the surrounds and can host friends and family. From the first steps inside, Madison Desert Club is deliberately designed to offer the feeling of being outside when moving from room to room. Imbued with space for the owner to entertain and unwind, Madison Desert Club rejoices in the landscape of La Quinta with an open floor plan and floor-to-ceiling windows and doors. Additionally, unique design elements are employed to enhance the home’s connection to the outdoors, beginning with a continuous canopy-style roof that is set over parts of the modern house, offering a change of light throughout the day. Another element seen upon arrival is the Oculus – a circular shape integrated into the roof, which allows for uninterrupted views of the sky above.
Spanning all three levels, the modern house tour begins at the lower level, where a sauna, spa and gym are placed. The above two levels hold the guestrooms, kitchen, living, dining areas and private cocktail bar. Expressed by its metal mesh curtain, the cocktail bar is imbued with warm colours that reference whiskey and give the impression of being inside a sophisticated space reserved for VIP clients. On the top level, a dedicated screening room offers a rare surprise when the screen wall opens up to the entire living space below. Designed to work just as well for two people or 200 people, the home is a collection of rare moments where the owners can celebrate with friends or find moments of peace.
Creating different spaces for the owners and guests, Kovac Design Studio flanks the main building with twin primary suites that are further complemented by private courtyards. In the guestrooms, the idea to use a different colour in each space gives the bedrooms separate identities. Additionally, the pink, yellow, blue and grey rooms offer guests a framed view of La Quinta’s landscape to enhance each of the rooms’ distinct experience. Furthermore, a large pool and spa area allows the owners or their guests to relax with a drink in hand whilst soaking in the Californian sun.
Alluding to the distant surrounds with its materials, the modern house is complemented with soft-coloured floors that reference the mountains in the distance, whilst a washed rough plaster is used on the walls both inside and out. Moreover, the various marbles and finished woods are a reference to the role Palm Springs plays in being the location for glamorous events such as Coachella. Intended to be open all day long, each space is finished with floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors, establishing that no boundaries exist between the modern house and the La Quinta landscape.
