Modern Home Plays With Light & Shadow Like Sundial

This stunning ridgetop home in Santa Fe, N.M. is organized around two perpendicular board-formed concrete walls. A narrow skylight runs the entire 125' length of one of the walls, casting changing shadows during the day like a sundial. Views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains add to the home's tranquil design.
