Desert Style AZ is hosting a series of design-focused events during the inaugural Desert Design Week.
A highlight of the week in October — The Ar(t)chitecture Home Tour, which is from Oct. 26-27 — will give design lovers the opportunity to tour architecturally distinct homes and shop a curated art gallery on display in each Phoenix residence.
One of the homes is Stay Skyeview, a property on Camelback Mountain that was recently renovated by Cameron Custom Homes & Renovations, a division of Camelot Homes.
There will also be an exclusive cocktail reception featuring the work of sculptor Peter Deise 6 – 8:30 p.m. on Oct. 24.
A portion of proceeds from ticket sales will benefit The Saguaros, a philanthropic organization dedicated to raising money for Arizona children’s charities.
Stay Skyeview property to be featured at Desert Design Week home tour this October
Architectural designer Joel Contreras and Camelot Homes Managing Director of Design Trent Hancock joined forces to reimagine Stay Skyeview, the unassuming 1970s ranch style home that had been owned by a single owner before the transformation began in 2022.
A selection of art from local artists including renowned sculpturist Peter Deise will be on display throughout the home’s interior and exterior spaces during the envisioned home tour this October.
“Stay Skyeview embodies a new era of luxury living, where art, architecture, and innovation converge to create a sanctuary unlike any other,” says Mr. Hancock. “Nature’s beauty is on full display here – especially at night, when Arizona’s sunsets and city lights put on a dazzling show, best enjoyed from the comfort of your bed, or at the elevated pool and spa area just above the home.”
Mr. Hancock, a past active member of The Saguaros, says he’s looking forward to raising money for Saguaros Children’s Charities, the nonprofit beneficiary of the Ar(t)chitecture Home Tour ticket sales.
In addition to the Ar(t)chitecture Home Tour, Desert Design Week will include a series of makers markets, garden parties, and art installations from October 16-27.
