When Ibarra Rosano Design Architects designed these Arizona courtyard homes, a community of six, they wanted to bring a bit of the outdoors into each home here in this urban infill community. Inspired by local history, these homes boast a classic courtyard interior design that opens to outdoor living rooms, enclosed in masonry walls with minimal western exposure. The architects put a modern spin on tradition with a glass wall that floods interiors with natural light and blurs the boundary between indoors and out. Contemporary finishes transform these desert homes into an oasis. Ibarra Rosano Design Architects
