Text description provided by the architects. The 21st century ecologically sensitive Lake residence designed by Architekton is sympathetic to its 20th Century neighbors and is a mix of reverence and daring. The 3,500 sf home was specifically designed for a family of four (and two beagles and a cat) on an 8,200 sf lot in the first lake community in Arizona. The new home was built on the last vacant lot in the 30-year-old Lakes Neighborhood in Tempe Arizona. The site was chosen for its' views, north-south orientation, quality of schools and close proximity the family's places of work. The goal was to create a livable, sustainable contemporary home, which could evolve over the family's lifetime.
