A “Uniquely New Mexico” Collection
In this gallery you can view a collection of photos taken from our portfolio of homes. It is a true testament to our timeless design and construction. Being custom home builders has allowed us to explore many different design styles of architecture. Whether it be rammed earth or framed, we will integrate your ideas and needs with our concepts and guidance. Although known for our classic “Uniquely New Mexican” homes, you will see each home is unique for the the individuals they are built for. We invite you to use these images to imagine your own custom Soledad Canyon Earth Builders’ home.

This particular project gave us a chance to show you another side of Soledad Canyon Earth Builders. The style of this home was not our typical southwestern/New Mexico look. We dubbed it the Alameda Style.Uniquely Alameda! With its pitched roof line, wood floors, white painted cabinets and trim it blends right into the neighborhood. Yet, its distinctive characteristics make it a stand-out addition to the neighborhood. The xeriscaped yard (the trees will grow up), the metal roof, the two car garage, and the ceramic light sconces add a fresh look to the Alameda District.51 Photos
The historic town of Mesilla is located next to the city of Las Cruces in Southern New Mexico. A perfect setting to create history. Soledad Canyon Earth Builders’ mission is to build homes that will be historic homes. Homes that will last through many generations. Bill Perry and Sally Williams’ home located in Mesilla will be one of these homes. The home was completed in 2006. It is situated on five acres with the all coveted view of the Organ Mountains from most rooms in the home. Construction began in 2005. It is a 3,445 square foot home with an 852 sq. ft. garage and 604 sq. ft. of portals. The home’s electrical usage is powered by the sun. Sixteen Photovoltaic solar panels are mounted on the roof of the home gathering the sun to generate electricity. Enjoy the tour—look for those 18” rammed earth walls.

This custom home has a twelve sided polygon shaped great room. A fireplace is in the center of the great room with a built in sitting area and adobe wall. This house was custom designed with the clients style as well as energy efficient attributes in mind. The exterior walls of this home are 18″ thick rammed earth. A special plaster was used for the finish to achieve an aged rustic look.34 Photos
This home is of a contemporary nature. What makes it contemporary? No bullnose corners to be found in this house! All ninety degree corners-interior and exterior. No upper cabinets in the kitchen, white subway tile the whole length of the wall in the kitchen, birch and white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, concrete floors, glass interior doors, and cantilevered bathroom vanity and shelving. All this surrounded by 18″ thick rammed earth walls. We like being able to show that rammed earth does not mean you have to have a pueblo style home, it means you can have the style of home you like and want, with energy efficient, sustainable walls.

We have been asked –do you build small homes? Yes, we do and we love it as much as any large size home. This jewel is a 1986 sq. ft. rammed earth home with a 484 sq. ft. garage and 602 (302 upper tiled deck) sq. ft. of patios. It is three bedrooms, almost three bathrooms (one of the bathrooms shares a tub/shower). The main bedroom is on the second floor with direct access to a tiled deck. A private spot for lounging and star gazing. It is an efficient floor plan with plenty of open space in the main living room/kitchen/dining room. The home is ready to welcome a party with many friends and family yet cozy enough to feel intimate with one other person. The 18″ walls wrap you in security and quietness.
