Dreaming of hot weather, dry land and spicy possibilities? Then check out this collection of Southwest plans.

Southwest house plans borrow from the architectural traditions of the American Indians and the Spanish settlers of the desert Southwest.

They regularly feature building materials such as brick, stucco and wood (which paint them nicely into their sandy desert backdrops), and include fun, cooling-off areas—like a shaded side porch or outdoor kitchen.
