Set just north of the rillito river on a low flat site the Zimmerman
Kahn residence is a modern, desert appropriate dwelling for a young family.
The design developed around the urge to create an environment that was
simple & clutter free that allowed the family to escape the trappings
of everyday life and escape back to a retreat focused around family. The
core of the house contains the living room, kitchen, dining area, outdoor
living room & pool. North facing, floor to ceiling glass allows the spaces
to flow seamlessly from one to another and fills the space with natural
light.
