Rounded corners, deep windows, blue sky—pure adobe postcard.

Long, low roof with vigas. The whole place melts into the landscape.

Sun and shadow on those smooth walls. Quiet courtyard energy.

If I had this pergola deck, I'd never go back inside.

Creamy walls, terracotta floor, light pouring from above. Simple and perfect entry.

Big beams overhead, artsy touches everywhere. Feels cozy without trying too hard.

Terracotta floors and beams keep it grounded. Looks cool even on hot days.

Chunky table, honest chairs, lots of light. Dinner would actually linger here.

Floor-to-ceiling shelves doing the most. I’d lose hours poking around there.

Granite with little gold sparkles? I’m sold. Also, those cabinets are legit.

Tub with window views. Minimal lines meet earthy textures. Immediate exhale.

Hex tile mosaic is gorgeous. Soft greens make it feel a spa.

The whole Pueblo vibe, but tightened up. Warm terracotta against sandy stucco looks timeless.

Rustic door in a tan adobe wall. Feels a quiet little courtyard.
