Finished Concrete/Masonry with No Additional Surface Material or No Trim on Doors/Windows

Intent

To reduce the amount of materials used.

Additional Information/How to Implement

By not adding an additional finish material but instead decorating the underlayment, you reduce the overall amount of materials used.  Santa Fe style with its use of bull nose detailing inherently minimizes the amount of trim material used in construction.  This technique is used both on the interior and the exterior of buildings and for interior doors as well.
