New Mexican Architecture | A Break Down of New Mexico Architecture Styles | Santa Fe Style Homes

- New Mexico has unique architectural styles like Pueblo, Territorial, and Northern New Mexico! I’ll break down what those styles look like, the finishes, and major differences between them all. I’ll talk about the history of Pueblo style which is really the genesis of it all, particularly Santa Fe Style homes. This is a surface level breakdown, I’m not an architect or historian so I may have left out specific details.
If you are considering a move to Albuquerque or within Albuquerque, we’d be honored to be your guide and trusted advisor.

Pueblo style will forever be my favorite, l love it's abandoned feel of pretentiousness, it's like living outdoors! ❤❤❤ love the whole video!👏👏👏👏👏👍
Very Greek looking structures especially with the rounding of the corners I really love that look
These homes are beautiful
Look to build in North New Mexico in the next 5 years. Glad I found this video. Thanks for the history and ideas! How about post and beam construction
GREAT REVIEW
Great video
Great video, but you don't address the functional aspects of the different styles. These aesthetic decisions were in large part driven by practical engineering concerns.
To start with, while you claim that adobe bricks are good insulators, that is not true: they are poor insulators (R value of only 0.25/inch) but they have a lot of thermal mass, and that is what makes them so great for the climate, as it smooths off the highs and lows and get the temperature to a more constant level. (Most modern adobe homes have insulation on the outside to try to achieve both goals.)
The reason for small windows in the years before glass was that a wall of adobe facing south would soak up solar energy gave the maximum chance of warmth at night. Glass allowed for solar gain to happen inside a building, which is more efficient.
The problem with the stucco imitation of adobe walls is that they have very little thermal mass, and so this sophisticated understanding of how a building works in its climate is lost. Now we build identical houses facing any which way (so the sun pours in on summer days) and have to blast heat and/or AC to compensate for that poor understanding of the mechanics of homes in desert climates.
Creo que robaron tambien el estilo de la construcción comanche.😂
