Our ranch-style house and the homes were built from indigenous components. Windows have been sealed by wrought iron grates rather than glass panes. Wood shutters, when present, are traditionally mounted on the inside of the home. Ornamentation on these informal homes was often limited to arches on entrance ways, principal windows, and interior passageways. More elaborate features include intricate stone and colorful tile work, detailed chimney tops, and square towers.
Spanish Colonial grew from the style of missions built by the Spanish padres, and was reimagined in the late 1800s.

The Mission style has distinctively curved or shaped parapet and, in ornate cases, one or two squares mimicking a church bell tower. There also tends to be a small roof overhang (eaves) with visible rafters underneath.

You can relax in your Spanish-style home, loving life, loving Spain.
