THRESHOLD

The Elements community guard house exemplifies mountain modern architecture in Prescott, Arizona, settling into the landscape with a confident, low-profile design. Its bold cantilevered roof, defined by crisp metal fascia and warm oak soffits, anchors the composition, while dark bronze anodized aluminum fascia extends into the entry massing, creating a continuous architectural gesture that guides the approach. Locally sourced natural stone veneer walls ground the structure in its mountain setting, and vertical oak slat panels introduce rhythm and tactile warmth. Positioned along the expansive drive, the guard house establishes a refined and inviting modern architectural threshold to the luxury estates within the Elements community.
