“People talk about 360-degree views like it’s a cliché, but this lot has them,” Jameson Neuhoff says. “You can stand in the backyard in 75-degree sun and see snow on the mountain. That juxtaposition is rare.” While the principal of Palm Canyon Development waxes poetic about the views, the Desert Palisades posed significant construction challenges. The property sits on a boulder-strewn alluvial fan.
Tucked inside Tradition Golf Club in La Quinta, between the golf course and the base of the Santa Rosas, Portland, Oregon–based Maison Inc. has transformed a sweeping 8,500-square-foot home — with a casita and patios — into a warm, inviting sanctuary for a family of four and their frequent guests.
In the afternoon shadow of the Santa Rosas sits a once-dated Indian Wells residence. After a down-to-the-studs renovation by Aimee Meisgeier, the clients’ four-bedroom golf club home emerged as an elegantly rustic hacienda-inspired haven that blends traditional charm with contemporary flair. As principal and lead designer of AM Interior Design in Seattle, Meisgeier’s keen eye for detail and affinity for texture, color, and form brought the homeowners’ vision into focus, giving them a place to appreciate the desert’s light, shadows, and views.
With the introduction color and pattern, a classic design becomes the perfect playground for a relocating couple.
