Spanish Mission style is a type of architecture that originated in the Spanish colonization of the Americas. It is characterized by its use of stucco walls, arches, red tile roofs, and terracotta flooring. The interior of a Spanish Mission style home typically has a courtyard, open spaces, and carved wooden furniture. The style is often associated with the American Southwest, but is also found in parts of Latin America, the Caribbean, and other regions with a Spanish colonial history.
