Our Take On It

Presented here are houses to dream of and dream in—a luminous celebration of the finest examples of the Santa Fe Style from the eighteenth century to today, in this high-desert mecca of artists, craftspeople, artisans and designers.

Desert hues, natural materials, thick hand-plastered walls and adobe brick construction are hallmarks of the Santa Fe Style, which is as much an expression in architecture, interior design, art and crafts as it is a way of life. Rooted in a sense of earthy comfort inspired by its history, the surrounding desert, and Native American and Hispanic design influences, the style has a timeless appeal and vibrant ongoing life that has resulted in these extraordinary homes.

With features such as eighteenth-century peeled vigas, tin chandeliers, romantic iron sconces and hand-hewn wood-beamed ceilings, each house is a rich yet harmonious invitation that will engage the senses and speak to the soul. Beyond the houses, the writer and photographer spotlight those details and spaces that together convey the magic of this very special place.

Casa Santa Fe is the definitive sourcebook for architects, designers, builders, homeowners and interior decorators seeking to expand their visual repertoire of historically defined and classically inspired architectural details and interior appointments.
