A new 14-home residential development at the edge of Palm Springs, Linea represents the next level in the 75-year old tradition of Desert Modernism. Residences that are not just luxurious, spacious, and beautifully detailed, they’ve been designed and built with a profoundly environmental point of view by architect Anthony Poon and developer Andrew Adler’s Alta Verde Group. Poon’s architecture practice encompasses a wide variety of building types and structures, from restaurants to churches to schools, all surprisingly personal and evocactive. CH+D’s Michelle Konstantinovsky had a chat with him earlier this year.
Just inside the main entry, an expanse of white greets you, with floor-to-ceiling walls of glass open to a very private pool area and the mountains as a backdrop.
What We Love: The exceptionally high ceilings and expanses of glass, manufactured with a technology that pioneering Modernists like Richard Neutra and Albert Frey could only dream of. Plus the spaces are so elegantly proportioned one could live with very little furniture– or a collection of Mid-Century masterpieces.
Below, the office/media room. With a comprehensive menu of environmentally friendly construction values– including fully insulated roofs and photovoltaic panels– all the Linea homes exceed California energy standards by 15% and qualify for additional tax credits.
The master suite includes an immense spa bath.
