Although The Goat Heads are mostly clad in metal, it’s the plastic panel walls at the entries that really shine. “In the evening they act like lanterns and animate the courtyards,” says Rogers. Their glow is tempered by the concrete breeze-block walls. “It was important that the units weren’t too bright—part of the beauty out here is the sky at night.”

The Hannahs dine with Lange’s dog, Cloudy, on one of the courtyard patios that Rogers added to let tenants take advantage of Marfa’s (mostly) pleasant weather. The metal siding and roofing are from Mueller, while the paint is from Benjamin Moore.

Both courtyards are enclosed by Featherlite breeze-block walls that filter the sun, sometimes to dramatic effect; the one that fronts Lange’s unit lets the sunrise light fill her space.

The spaces are practical but not mundane. When Delagi isn’t at her bakery job, she uses her kitchen to make croissants, bagels, and—once last year—a wedding cake. The love seat is from Zinus, while the countertop is from PaperStone, the cooktop is from Avanti, and the refrigerator is from Frigidaire.

As an experiment in creating much-needed long-term housing for Marfa, Texas, architect Candid Rogers developed a small empty lot with two compact rentals using durable, inexpensive materials inspired by the desert landscape. Rogers leases the 360-square-foot units, targeting a rate of around $1,000 per month. The Doors are from Jeld-Wen, while the wood structure is from Weyerhaeuser.
