The house is pretty simple: 3 rooms and a bath in 700 ft.sq. The design is pretty traditional. Even the metal roof you see outside is traditional 'mountain adobe' style'. The flat roof you might have been expecting is Santa Fe style.
This is the large room. Vigas, those logs up above, support a rough fir ceiling of wide planks. The floor is unmortared brick laid on sand. Water just runs right thru. Not always very even, but it soaks up a lot of heat from the sun in the sliding glass doors.
The hoosier is one I rebuilt 30 years ago, and the wooden cabinets alongside I made to fit.
This is the corner of the same room that is called the 'kitchen', somewhat to the disgust of swmbo, who is here caught unawares and will make me pay when she finally sees this: "woman, thy name is vanity."
Same position, more or less, but looking into the bathroom. You can't see it really well but the owner laid 4 pieces of '30s Catalina Tile into the wall: it is two parrots on a branch. The woodstove got in trade for a little tiny one that was in the house. The original was very good quality but needed pieces about 12" long. This sucker is not quite airtight but will take pieces about 30" long. I cleaned it all up and painted the front design with high temp paint. Haven't decided if I like it better painted, or un. The castings on the doors are wonderful. The round damper knobs have pine cones cast in.
