Abe Salman: Elemental Home, An approach to envisioning a home that is essential in its form and program necessity. Situated as a rendezvous location in Joshua Tree, home to the spark of a new creative AirBnB architectural oasis, the Elemental Home synthesizes all aspects of living into a pristine and proportionally divine living quarter.
The elemental home organizes 4 equal spaces (Bed, Bath, Kitchen, and Dining) around an encapsulating courtyard. This equality of scale and shape of each program amplifies what the true quality of this home is: a simplification of life and an exaggerated attention to a connection with nature.
