Located along the western most point of the Las Vegas Valley with unobstructed views to rugged surrounding canyons and mountains, Fort 137 is an environmentally conscious home comprised of a series of connected rock masses emerging from the earth. Panoramic glass doors on the north and south facades extend the living space beyond the architectural perimeter while providing cross-ventilation and daylighting, along with expansive views. Deep, louvered roof overhangs minimize heat gain by providing shade during summer months while allowing natural light to permeate the space during the winter.
Founded in 2014, our philosophy is rooted in the idea that designs should be immersive and activate all senses to evoke a range of emotions. We view each project as an opportunity to create an experience with a story arc and a unique vocabulary used to set the visual stage and create a sense of place. We design from the inside out with a focus on the function, organization, and relationship of spaces—specifically, how their sequencing is experienced. In our practice there is no delineation between exterior environments, architecture and interior design.
