How I found myself in the desert: architectural 3D visualizations serving as a compass
If you can spot concentric circles in architectural renders, “rippling” out like the iconic building they’re inspired by, you’re probably in Arizona’s capital. If you see three strange cubes (resembling architectural structures) in hues that mirror the stony landscape – and, by the way, these cubes have a pretty cool backstory – then… we hope you’ve actually landed in California and are standing at the entrance of a “hotel” with your reservation in hand. Because the restored "Monument House" is best appreciated in person, both inside and out, especially now that it’s available on Airbnb. If parts of a house suddenly seem skewed, and its silhouette mentally transports you back to the days of the Pueblo settlements (whose name now defines an entire regional architectural style), then congratulations – you’re somewhere in New Mexico.
