A talented stonemason named Matthew Young constructed these breathtaking stone walls, tunnels, and steps. It's amazing to see the level of detail that only master builders can add. That touch of the hand elevates any project!

Believe it or not, this small but mighty bridge survived the 100-year flood in 2018—it's amazing what solid architectural designs can do! 😉 Outside of its sturdiness, this bridge also serves as a lovely entrance to this beautiful estate. And in the tradition of the great old Tesuque country farm estates, the folks that live here embrace this lifestyle by growing many fruits, veggies, and flowers in their garden every year.

Whether you know me or just follow me on here, you probably know by now that I absolutely ADORE adobe ❤️.

Not only is adobe a beautiful building material, it's also incredibly sustainable in so many ways. So it should come as no surprise that my latest Urban Sense editorial for The Santa Fe New Mexican HOME magazine is a love letter to adobe.

In Santa Fe, we go to great lengths to preserve, but the old buildings 'in the middle of nowhere' tend to experience a more natural lifecycle. Why is this? These buildings are our history, and aren't any less important. Adobe is destined to melt into the earth after all, and perhaps it's a good thing to be surrounded by reminders of the cyclical nature of life...

I was driving down the road while exploring Lamy one night when I looked up to see this magnificent full moon. I always thought that moonrises speak to the immediacy of life, the need to be present-focused so that you don't miss the beauty of nature that surrounds you. In a place like Santa Fe that's filled to the brim with magic scenes, it feels easier to let yourself fall into the moment here.

One of my favorite rooms I have ever designed! This is partially because of the huge skylight (just out of view in this shot) and partially because this brilliant yellow plaster is one of the best plaster colors there is. In this bright, light-filled room, the proportions are conducive to whatever you want. It's the space where everyone wants to be, even though there is a fantastic living room right next to it, because it almost feels like you're sunbathing outside. It's also interesting that this was the easiest space to design—the inspiration flowed out of me rather quickly. It's always a lovely experience when the design process happens this way, and it often leads to the best designs!

Here's a #TBT to a beautiful fall day spent with Sugar Lily, one of my rescue poodles. This pavilion is the perfect place to sit, watch the river pass by, and contemplate life. One of the best activities my mother taught us was to river watch. Once you're in this state of mind, you realize there's no need to speak out loud for quite some time.

This magnificent entryway of a Casita Vieja is brought to life by the old Peñasco carved door that's sandwiched perfectly between the tall grasses and the lantern. What makes this space extra special, however, is that you have to cross a little bridge to get to the courtyard. It feels like you're traveling back into a different era each time you cross it.

Architecture is a more varied profession than people think. Architects are therapists, confidants, facilitators, artists, and tools to help people 'get what they need.'
