pueblo Revival, Pueblo style In the southwestern United States, primarily from about 1910 to 1940, an architectural mode intended to suggest pueblo architecture; usually includes a mixture of Spanish Colonial Revival and Mission Revival. Such buildings are usually characterized by: earth-colored stucco walls that provide a low-profile, adobe-like appearance; rounded corners at wall intersections; occasionally, battered walls; brick flooring on the porches and terraces; stepped-back roof lines in imitation of pueblo architecture; parapeted flat roofs drained by water-spouts; rows of wood beams protruding through the exterior walls, providing structural support for the roof; casement windows, usually recessed, with roughly hewn lintels; and battened doors.
