Our history

The story of Indigo.

A small gated neighborhood near Fort Apache and Blue Diamond, built around one big idea: put the living space on top and open the roof to a view of the whole valley.

The design

The "upside-down" house.

Ryland Homes built Indigo with three contemporary floor plans by the architecture firm KTGY. They were nicknamed "upside-down" plans because they flip the usual layout.

  • Ground floor: the garage and entry, with a guest suite in some plans
  • Second floor: the bedrooms
  • Third floor: the kitchen, dining and great room, opening to a balcony
  • On top: an optional rooftop deck with views of the Strip and the mountains

At just 24 feet wide, the homes go up instead of out, which is how a neighborhood this compact still makes room for two community parks.
