“Pliegue is defined by a single sweeping plane of bronze standing-seam metal that folds across the lot like a sheet of paper bent toward the sky. Below the floating roof: a quiet base of stacked sandstone, a band of cream stucco, and large expanses of dark bronze glass that almost disappear under the soaring canopy. The fold is the whole house — one continuous gesture that shelters living, kitchen, and bedrooms beneath its single bronze line. Architecture as origami of the desert.”
