Architect Wendell Burnette designed the Field House. This residential private home is only one box that is 5,000 square feet. The material of the outer part of this home is a metal covering that is zinc galvanized. The Field House is protected from the wind because it sets back against a tree line that is mature. This idea was from an old farm nearby. The sun warms the house in the winter months because the south and east walls open up.
The Hidden Valley Desert House is a small house that sits on a desert slope that faces the south. The contours of this particular site are paralleled by the elevated pinkish-red scale that runs east and west. The shelter and shade of this home are provided by the canopy that is on the top of it. Also, this canopy provides all of the necessary needs for a carbon-neutral home. 
Wendell Burnette is an architect that specializes in contemporary Desert Modern Architecture, and the Dialogue House is just that! Mass, materials, light, and scale are all balanced perfectly together. This is a simply designed home that has many small details that define the desert lifestyle.
Wendall Burnette Architects designed the Desert Courtyard House. This house has rammed earth walls that provide a protective shell around it. The desert Courtyard house was built to be used as a second home, and it is fully surrounded by granite boulders and tall cacti in order to not be noticeable. This house is on a surface of the patinated metal that helps this house blend in with its surroundings. The purpose of the way the outside of this building is designed was for it to be a shadow into the landscape. The desert is the center of this home because of the way it is positioned. It is on the edge of a peninsula and the main living area has glass walls. 
This museum is one of the last buildings to be created by I.M. Pei. Construction of this museum started in 2006 and finished in 2008. At 91 years old I.M. Pei traveled though the Muslim world gaining inspiration for this museum. The design is mainly of white rectangles stacked on top of each other. In my humble opinion, this is one of I.M Pei’s most beautiful works. The Museum of Islamic Art can be found in Doha, Qatar which overlooks the Persian Gulf.
Built in 1986 by I.M Pei who collaborated with WET Design Company and with landscape architect Dan Kiley to build a 63-floor tower that incorporated water fountains into the design. It is named the fountain place because the architects created 172 dancing fountains that surround the building. The Fountain Place is a unique design in which constructed as a multi-faceted prism which presents a different profile from different directions. One can find this building in Dallas, Texas near the arts district.
In 1984, the French President Francois Mitterrand asked I. M. Pei to bring the Louvre Museum into Modernity. The new design by I.M. Pei consists of one large pyramid that is surrounded by three smaller pyramids. The large pyramid was designed to function as the new main entrance into the museum. With this new look, the museum has attracted many tourists since its conception in 1984. To this day, it is one of I.M. Pei’s most famous pieces of architecture.
This next set of blogs will be focusing on the works of I.M. Pei
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio was designed by I.M Pei. This is the second time I.M. Pei used his iconic glass pyramid in a building. Although the Rock and Roll hall of fame is famous on its own, the Louvre Pyramid outshines this building in the world of architecture.
My last blog is on one of my favorite residential spaces in New York. It’s called One57 on billionaires row conveniently located one block away from central park. Nearly all the units overlook central park and the great city of New York. The design is quite remarkable with all glass walls surrounding the buildings units with 360 degree views, this is the place to be. 
My third blog would have to be a positive influence as well. The white house is absolutely remarkable. The symmetry creates the image of perfection and the security ensures it is an extremely important place. The White House is the U.S. President’s official residence and workplace. It is located in Washington, D.C. at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW. And since John Adams in 1800 it has been the home of every U.S. president. For the president and his aides, the word “White House” is often used as a metonym.
