Sage desert is perched on a bluff, with great views of the arroyo below. The entry is grand and dramatic reminiscent of the old Spanish hotels in the area. common areas open up to the meandering courtyard. A loggia connects many of these spaces. The exterior draws on traditional elements: slump block, heavy timber beams, and corrugated shed roofs. The vibrant yet weathered exterior color palate is carried inside through fabrics and accessories.
