Pueblo styles

Pueblo styles refer to the traditional architecture of Indigenous communities in the Southwestern United States, characterized by their use of natural materials like adobe (clay and straw), and features such as flat roofs, thick walls, and multi-story structures. These buildings are designed to blend with the landscape, providing insulation and protection from the desert climate. The style reflects cultural practices, communal living, and a connection to the environment, often seen in historic and modern pueblos, particularly among Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni peoples. Overall, Pueblo architecture emphasizes durability, practicality, and cultural identity.
