This deceptively simple “H” plan of a Northern New Mexican style house was sited and designed in such a way as to capture dramatic views of the Manzano Mountains and the distant horizon from a number of key rooms – living/dining, library and master bedroom. Placed on a promontory overlooking the vast open spaces of the New Mexico landscape, the house partially surrounds and defines sunrise and sunset courtyards both of which are accessible from the main rooms of the house through numerous French doors. Open beamed cathedral ceilings; sandstone floors and hand carved doors compliment this updated interpretation of the local vernacular architecture.
