What’s your dream desert dwelling? Monument House by the experimental American architect Josh Schweitzer is one we’d be very happy to hole up in. Built in 1989 as a family holiday home, it sits amid the arid desertscape of Joshua Tree, California. Its three cubic sections—in citrus yellow, salmon pink and pale blue—and their trapezoidal openings deliberately mirror the boulders and landforms that surround them, to particularly pleasing effect.
