Description
Looking up at the skylight from the central Rotunda in the New Mexico state capitol building in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
The New Mexico State Capitol, known as the Roundhouse, is the only round capitol building in the country. It combines elements of New Mexico Territorial style, Pueblo adobe architecture and Greek Revival adaptations. The four-story Roundhouse includes a central interior Rotunda that rises 60 feet through the top three stories. The stained glass ceiling skylight is patterned after a Native American basket weave symbolizing the sky and the earth.
