Desert Architecture for a New Millenium
These photographs show three variations on the basic style of adobe house built in Bosque Farms, New Mexico, during the 1930s. The photo top left most clearly shows the shed-style roof with a parapet on three sides. In this case, the low side of the roof is situated over a side wall of the house. In the photo top right, the low side of the roof is on the front side of the house. In the photo bottom left, a porch has been added to the front of the house. All three houses show slight variations in the placement, size, and number of the double-hung windows. |
