Oasis: Modern Desert Homes Around the World - Hardcover

by Io Tillett Wright (Author), Casey Dunn (Photographer)

Welcome to the desert. Welcome home. This visually stunning tour of the world's most amazing desert homes will inspire you to create an oasis with "desert vibes" wherever you are.

Creatives are drawn in by the extreme landscapes and limited resources of the desert; in fact, they're inspired by them, and the homes they've built here prove the power of an oasis. From renovated Airstreams to sprawling, modern stucco, desert has become the new beachfront.

In Oasis, artist iO Tillett Wright captures the best of this specific culture that emphasizes living simply, beautifully, and in connection with the earth. He highlights the homes that define this desert mindset, featuring the classics like Georgia O'Keefe's in Abiquiu, New Mexico, alongside more modern homes such as Michael Barnard's Solar House in Marfa, Texas. With Casey Dunn's stunning photography, Oasis will transport you to these relaxing refuges, where you'll learn what elements create the balance of intentionality, ease, style, and function that these homes exude.
