Sitting in the afternoon shadow of Lone Mountain in Scottsdale, sits the Boulders residence, a new 2400 square foot home designed by Phoenix-based architecture firm The Ranch Mine. The property is located in the Sonoran Desert on the northern edge of Scottsdale, an area with unique geology highlighted by extremely large, 12 million-year-old boulders.
It is a complex building consisting of sales, factories, offices, dormitories, and convenience facilities. It will be owned by a large number of people by dividing the space for each use and selling the shares. In this large-scale complex, spaces for various purposes are organically arranged. According to District-Unit Plan, this site is limited to 12 stories or less in height. For more suitable layout within the legal limitations, each space is organized in such a way that it overlaps each other. At the point where spaces for different uses meet, common space is arranged. Spaces for various purposes were arranged horizontally and vertically based on sunlight, views, and visual communication possibilities.
