If I am correct, the "Desert House" by Paolo Soleri you show in this post may actually be the infamous but little-known 1947 "Dome House" in Cave Creek, AZ. I could be mistaken, but I actually visited the Dome House a few years ago on a fairly remote dirt road in Cave Creek, and from what I can recall, your picture is of the same structure. Please inform me if I am mistaken, and if I am correct, I can provide more of the details of my very strange visit to this unique bit of modern American architectural history.

I look forward to your reply.

Thanks.

Indeed it is in Cave Creek Arizona, even though Jencks calls it "Desert Home" it could very well be Dome House. And I totally want to know more about your visit...
