Carrie Long, of Carrie Long Interiors<\/a> (CLI), walks us through this beautiful desert getaway, built in part with Scottsdale-based Lablonde Homes. The vacation home boasts a modern desert aesthetic, nestled in the mountains, with plenty of room to entertain the homeowner’s large, extended family with ease.<\/p>\n

Breakfast Nook<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The breakfast nook features vintage 1970\u2019s chairs, along with a butcher block-topped table, which creates a super durable surface for the family. We couldn\u2019t find a mirror we loved for above the banquet, so the CLI team custom-made the piece you see here.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Den<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The real focal point of the den is the custom light fixture our team created, which measures 5-ft. around, scaling with the large size of the space and the grand fireplace. The fixture illuminates the multiple seating areas throughout the room \u2013 which was designed as a \u2018flex space\u2019 for the family to watch TV, read in the comfy armchairs, or have a drink at the bar (not pictured).”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Outdoor Space<\/strong><\/p>\n

“This client has a large family and loves to entertain \u2013 having 25 to 30 people over at a time. This fabulous outdoor space allows for the family to grill, dine al fresco, and enjoy the fire pit area. There is also a massive door-wall that opens the living room to the outdoor dining area \u2013 truly showing what is means to bring the outdoors in.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kitchen<\/strong><\/p>\n

“When the client bought the plans for this house, our team had the freedom to completely redraw the interior space, including this kitchen. We ensured copious amounts of counter space and seating areas to further accommodate the family\u2019s love to entertain, as well as their six children. We were also thrilled to find the countertops \u2013 which are black and gold granite sourced locally in Arizona.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Master Bedroom<\/strong><\/p>\n

“When designing the home, we wanted to make sure it truly fit into its surroundings \u2013 creating a desert chic feel. You can see this here in the exposed wooden ceiling beams, as well as the petrified stone tables and the amazing views of the landscape outside. The CLI team also custom-made the bed here, flanked by included sleek, floating nightstands.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Carrie Long, of Carrie Long Interiors (CLI), walks us through this beautiful desert getaway, built in part with…\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":8482,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[4689,1648,4690],"class_list":["post-8480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-design-and-architecture","tag-carrie-long-interiors","tag-featured","tag-lablonde-homes","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"\nDesign Spotlight: Modern Desert Escape<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Carrie Long, of Carrie Long Interiors (CLI), walks us through this beautiful desert getaway, built in part with Scottsdale-based Lablonde Homes.
