“There life goes on enriched by a sense of beauty and an innate dignity that are left over from an older time, when hard work and infinite care, not money, were spent to beautify a house and its furnishings.” – Adobe Notes, by Kate Chapman and Dorothy N. Stewart So in love with this sweet little book from 1930 on what makes adobe good. I hope the buildings we create live up to the tradition. I believe the book is out of print, but you can find a PDF of it on Quentin Wilson’s website: quentinwilson.com #katechapman #dorothystewart #adobenotes #newmexicohistory
