Three days at The Bungalows — a field journal.
We’re marking the Spring Equinox with a look back at our favourite trip from the past year – a road trip through the High Desert. We stayed at The Bungalows by Homestead Modern, drawn to the mid-century design and quiet connection to the landscape.
There’s something about this time of year that sparks the urge to reset, to plan, to chase the places that call you back. For anyone mapping out their adventures for the year ahead, consider Joshua Tree. A place that pulls you in, again and again.
“In the mountains of California, above the Mojave lies a plateau overlooking the desert, sloping to the East, facing the morning sun, into the West where San Gorgonio’s snow-capped peak reflects the glow of the setting sun… Moved by a sense of the tranquil nobility and eternal beauty of the desert, I have planned, not a city of asphalt, paving and steel, or of tight mechanical grid and congested living barracks [but] a city of the Desert, spacious, free-sweeping; its broad floor carpeted by myriads of desert blossoms; its residents dwelling at peace, and sharing with the soil, sky, and trees, their joy of living, its centuries-old Joshua trees standing like sentinels above its homes.”
— Frank Lloyd Wright
