from the ground up
Having in-depth experience in building and renovating homes, interior designers Hector Romero and Chris Obeji oversaw every aspect of this project to make sure all design and construction details were being executed in the highest level required to create this architectural masterpiece. This home has been recognized by Palm Springs architectural committee as a significant contribution to the inventory of vintage and new residential modern homes in Palm Springs California.








exterior details
Project located in a natural valley in the desert foothills of the San Jacinto mountain range. The house was positioned on west side of the lot to be as close to the mountains to break the enduring sun especially in the hot summer afternoons. The rear of the home which is pool side was due south for privacy and to capture the noon sun while enjoying panoramic views all year long. The landscape design embraced indigenous desert vegetation that was planted in grids to bring a modern look as you get close to the home and a loose natural installation as you progress out to the hillsides.




eclectic retro vibe interiors
After the design and construction of this architecturally significant home, interior designers Hector Romero and Chris Obeji furnished the home with vintage collectables. This direction was time consuming because the sourcing of truly authentic and quality accessories, furnishings and art had to be carefully resourced through vintage and antique shops in Palm Springs, Los Angeles and San Diego, California.
