This 80 year old resort retreat is named after the original owner, the first Archbishop of New Mexico, Jean Baptiste Lamy. The design team, lead by Principal Phyllis Martin-Vegue, researched the history of the property and developed the conceptual design direction which retains the existing Santa Fe character, while enhancing it by adding materials colors and artifacts from rich local history. Major sources of design inspiration came from the exquisite 1930´s Rawlings paintings in the Main Dining Rooms. The renovations was realized in the palette of colors from the Rawlings paintings; a complex set of atypical desert colors ranging through teals, aquas, ochres, terra cottas, sage greens, and purplish blues. The fabrics are in the adobe neutral palette, with the furniture taking its inspiration from the early New Mexican Territorial and Spanish influences. |
