This sun-drenched desert home is peak summer living
Here’s how to make the most of indoor-outdoor living this season.
Greetings from Tucson
The quickest way to get your home summer ready? Turn up the heat. We mean that figuratively and literally. As temperatures rise, bring the comforts of the indoors outside—extending your living space for the season. To bring the best of outdoors in, mix earthy terracotta, warm wood tones and natural fibers. Trust us, it will feel like summer year round.
Take this sun-drenched property in the foothills of Arizona’s Santa Catalina Mountains as inspiration. Floor-to-ceiling windows blur the boundary between the clean-lined, contemporary interiors and the desert landscape. In a swath of earth tones, our summer collections have a similar impact, creating a seamless transition between interior and exterior living areas.
Desert vibes, redefined
Our modern take on Southwestern-inspired style plays up natural textures. A mix of laid-back linen, ready-to-be-worn-in leather, rough-hewn wood furniture, jute rugs and organic ceramics create layers of rich texture.
Keep it cohesive with a sunset-inspired palette and warm terracotta tones.
While most Arizona abodes play shady haven from the relentless desert rays, this home—built in 1968 with an addition in 1979—welcomes the sunshine in.
Organic forms, on repeat
When working with a natural palette, shape is another way to build visual interest. A collection of handmade ceramic vessels in varying sizes and scales look striking styled vertically across a bookshelf or mantel.
Monochrome moment
When it comes to summer entertaining, easy is the name of the game. Keep casual gatherings sleek but simple with a monochromatic tablescape. A foundation of dinnerware and napkins in shades of sand and ivory look chic on their own and can be mixed with other colors when the mood strikes.
Your second living room
More sunny days mean more square footage. Double your living space with an outdoor lounge and dining area for soaking up summer, dawn through dusk.
Just because something is designed to be weatherproof doesn’t mean it has to look like it.
Our summer collections redefine outdoor living by combining the best of the indoors—plush seating, textural textiles and more—with all-weather durability. That means easy to clean, hard to break and impossible to fade.
