El Pueblo Museum Trading Post

Project Info

Design of a 2,000 sf evocation of a Trading Post which was built near what is believed to be the original site of the post. The L-shaped, one-story adobe trading post was guided by an artist’s sketch made in the 1850’s and various descriptions from historic journals and letters. The trading post was built from original materials – adobes and native timbers and woods, meeting 21st Century codes, maintaining durability and requiring little ongoing maintenance.
