Meridian
Three floating roof planes over walls of glass and stacked basalt, wrapped around an entry court and a north-facing infinity pool.
The house
Meridian is organized around shade. The long north bar holds the living spaces and the primary suite under one roof plane; two shorter wings — garage and guest rooms — reach south to form a walled entry court. Everything faces the pool and the view; the street sees stone, concrete and a single wood door.

Code basis · Arizona
This plan was drawn to:
- 2024 IRC as adopted (Phoenix 2024 PBCC; Tucson 2024 IRC eff. 1/1/2026); Scottsdale 2021 IRC
- 2024 IECC (Phoenix, Pima County) / 2021 IECC (Scottsdale) — Climate Zone 2B
Arizona leaves residential code adoption to cities and counties, so the IRC edition and amendments vary between Phoenix, Tucson, Scottsdale and rural counties. Check the edition your building department enforces.
Before you build. Halden plans are design documents. Depending on where you build, your jurisdiction may require structural design, energy compliance, a site plan, or a seal from a design professional or engineer licensed in your state. A local professional should review and adapt the set to your lot, soils and adopted code. We don't guarantee compliance with local zoning, covenants or setbacks.
