This desert home has an impressive structure that blends beautifully with the surroundings of Tuscon, Arizona. Its total space of 2,150 sq. ft features high ceilings with large glazed openings that frame and reflect beautiful desert views.

The Garcia Residence is a well planned modern home. A long gallery divides the private areas from the kitchen/dining and living areas, and a semi-closed courtyard divides the very private master bedroom from two other ensuite bedrooms.
