Interior Architecture in our desert is a very visible direct link to our Native American and Hispanic roots. If one picture is worth a thousand words, then this mud adobe and cactus spine hut says everything. The desert is hot, the thick adobe walls are cool. 

Today we can look upon these materials not only as aesthetically beautiful but functionally practical.


Contemporary artists and builders never hesitate to use the materials at hand. Enjoy the views!
