Desert by Design celebrates the interior worlds that exist in Earth's most arid climes and, more importantly, the creative minds who inhabit them
Marfa, Texas-based desert dwellers Molly Mandell and James Burke traveled the world to explore and photograph thirty incredible spaces. They made their way through the southwestern United States, to Mexico and Argentina, and to Morocco, Jordan, the Canary Islands, Rajasthan India, and even a micro-desert in New Zealand.
They visited high desert and low desert, urban desert and rural desert, sandy desert and scrubby desert. They photographed everything from iconic properties inhabited by Yves Saint Laurent, César Manrique, and Donald Judd to thoughtfully curated, centuries-old adobe structures and modern, groundbreaking ones, all the while interviewing the choreographers, hoteliers, sculptors, environmentalists, chefs, audio engineers, and preservationists who bring them to life.
This gorgeous coffee table book is an ode to these landscapes-their sounds, smells, flora, and fauna-filled with equal parts mystery and beauty and a glimpse into the projects and lives of those who have chosen to call them home.
Desert by Design-its genuine, beautiful, and unexpected approach-is not your average interiors book. From tips for cultivating the intimate and unpretentious environment that is synonymous with the desert to images that evoke mindful living, it is both an homage to this unique and dynamic climate-its most extraordinary places and memorable personalities-and a manual for adopting elements of this lifestyle, no matter our location.
Yes, this publication is for desert people, those who reside in it or who simply resonate with it. But it likewise exists for all of us who are seeking authentic design inspiration or courage to take the path less traveled, regardless of where we hang our hats.
Deserts are known to be sensitive ecosystems where adaptability and resilience become common currency, requiring humans to live within the environment rather than apart from it. The result is a people who are inspired by challenge and who constantly create and innovate.
