Before us is an expressive example of Pueblo Revival or Spanish-Indigenous architectural style, characteristic of the southwestern United States. The building features smooth organic forms and warm sand-yellow stucco, creating a harmonious unity with the surrounding landscape.
The facade presents an interesting composition of several volumes of varying heights. Particularly noteworthy is the characteristic undulating parapet line of the main building, creating a soft silhouette that contrasts with the blue sky. The secondary volume has a more traditional roof with wooden rafters extending outward, which is a typical element of the Pueblo style.
Architectural details include rhythmically placed windows with deep reveals, wooden beams and columns supporting the awning, as well as traditional wooden railings on the upper terrace characteristic of this style. The color scheme of the facade emphasizes the structure of the building: the main walls are finished in a golden-sand shade, while wooden elements are painted in a rich reddish-brown color, creating a warm contrast.
The landscape design organically complements the architecture through a red brick retaining wall and native plants, enhancing the connection between the structure and its natural surroundings. To adapt this style to private home construction, one could use flowing parapet forms, protruding wooden beams (vigas), deep window openings, and stucco in warm earth tones, which would create a sense of warmth and substantiality.
