"The Glide House by Michelle Kaufmann

desert house

 ... neatly combines clean, sleek design (all storage space runs down a bar on one side of one of the room which can be hidden away by means of gliding wooden doors) with environmentally friendly principles. Depending on the beauty of your views ... the opposite walls can be glass doors to, as Kaufmann puts it: ‘offer maximum views and blur the boundary between interior and exterior’. Alternatively, if you don’t look out on rolling hills and glorious scenery, the design can be tweaked to incorporate a private garden and rather less transparent walls."
