Oasis: Modern Desert Homes Around the World

A gorgeous book of unique architecture, in places you would not expect, wonderfully researched and described. A pleasure to look at and read even if it’s not your typical interest. It is absolutely amazing to learn what is possible in architecture when dreams and ideas come together.

Book was accurately described and arrived securely packaged with no damage.

Contains some interesting interior options, so worth a detailed look.

Love this book. I like the short stories about the homes and builders etc. nice coffee table book.

This is a very beautiful coffee table book. I first checked it out from my local library and knew I had to get my own copy.

Very cool book

First off, the print quality and the number of illustrations is phenomenal, especially for the price point! Oasis is a well-crafted curation of sensible, beautiful, and inspiring homes in the setting of the desert. In here you’ll find homes that meet a blend of cozy mediterranean and minimalism, which integrate beautifully with the natural landscape they are situated in. One thing that really surprised me about this book is that it includes a tremendous account of the quite little-known, sustainablility-focused community, Arcosanti. I only became aware of it because it’s located near where I grew up. This book will be a gift to my good friend studying to be an architect, but if it was mine it would be on my coffee table just because of how visually pleasing it is.

Not only is this not the traditional coffee table book.... thank goodness! This book is beautifully presented. Wonderful writing. Highly recommend and appreciate the quality!

This book has my heart. Bought of for a book bench but have been reading it and looking at the pictures continuously

beautiful coffee table book

Impulse purchase after reading about the release online, very solid book that I enjoyed

If you're more into interiors than architecture this is for you. Although the book does touch on architectural points - the photos and text are mainly about the interiors. There's tons of inspiration to be had in this book, and the author writes in an informed yet still conversational tone. As a desert child myself, I've always drawn back to this landscape and this book really has some gems. 100% would recommend.
