Single Family Residence in Ivins, UT

As seen in Architectural Digest, this design-forward desert residence is set against the breathtaking red cliffs of Kayenta, where contemporary architecture and the surrounding landscape exist in quiet harmony. Interior design by KSA Design Group in Chicago brings a refined sensibility to every space, creating a residence that feels both sophisticated and deeply connected to the natural beauty that surrounds it. Expansive walls of glass frame the ever-changing colors of the desert sky and sandstone cliffs, blurring the boundary between indoors and out. Clean architectural lines, organic materials, and a restrained natural palette create interiors that feel calm, grounded, and quietly elegant. At the heart of the residence, the thoughtfully designed living room - showcased in Architectural Digest - features a striking tiled fireplace wall inspired by the surrounding desert landscape. Rich textures and a nuanced green glaze echo the tones of the cliffs and vegetation beyond the expansive window wall, creating a dramatic focal point that brings the beauty of the desert directly into the interior. Designed for both connection and retreat, the open layout flows naturally between gathering spaces and private areas. Mornings begin with coffee as the rising sun washes the red cliffs in warm light, while evenings invite conversation beside the fire as the desert sky deepens overhead. The spa-inspired primary suite includes a dedicated yoga and exercise studio, creating a serene setting for wellness and restoration, while two ensuite guest rooms and a separate lounge provide comfortable accommodations for friends and family. Technology is seamlessly integrated throughout the residence. Savant home automation and Lutron lighting and shading systems allow lighting, climate, audio, security, and privacy to adjust effortlessly to your preferences, while automated shades and adaptive lighting work in harmony with natural daylight throughout the day. A Tier 1 solar system further supports efficient and sustainable living. Outdoor living is equally compelling. Expansive patios, a sparkling pool with integrated hot tub, and a dramatic fire feature create inviting spaces to gather, entertain, or simply unwind beneath the vast desert sky. Whether enjoying a quiet morning swim or hosting friends as the desert landscape shifts through sunset colors, the setting offers a rare sense of tranquility and connection to nature. A modern desert sanctuary, this residence brings together thoughtful architecture, refined design, and the timeless beauty of Kayenta to create a home that feels both elevated and deeply restorative.
