Casa Barragan by xoio
Lasse, from studio xoio, posted a gorgeous renders set of Casa Barragan that they made in-house. He showcases an impressive amount of viewpoints with a unique painterly look to them that really complements the design of the house and the spirit of Barragan in general. This is a must see and please add your opinion on this here or on the forums.
PREFAB Desert House by Marmol Radziner
I have a soft spot for PREFAB residential designs and this one by Marmol Radziner sure is a nice one. Designed for Leo Marmol and his wife Alisa Becket, the Desert House, Located on a five-acre site in Desert Hot Springs, California, employs four house modules and six deck modules. Sheltered living spaces blend the indoors with the outdoors, simultaneously extending and connecting the house to the north wing, which holds a guest house and studio space. Great reference for how a small architectural metallic subject looks in a desert environment.

Wadi Rum Desert Lodges Visuals by LUXIGON
Seeing new work by LUXIGON is always interesting, and their latest work for architect Chad Oppenheim truly amazed me. They produced a series of architectural visuals for the Wadi Rum Desert Lodges Resort in Jordan, an hour and a half outside of Petra. LUXIGON managed to inject a massive amount of emotive qualities into these images, aided greatly by the unique and isolated desert context. I’ve attached a PDF with information about the project and a set of images provided by LUXIGON.
