Halas Residence
1985, Paradise Valley, AZ

The house sits in a low desert climate with native landscaping and large rock outcroppings. The butterfly roof radius is taken from the curve of the ancient granite boulders and was Jones Studio's first example of architecturally expressed rain water harvesting.
