Detail
The plight of homeless veterans inspired Troy Tso (Diné) to consider the meaning of home. His design's center is a Hogan, a traditional Diné structure of wood and earth. The roof's construction - shown from the inside looking up - is surrounded by the four mountains that bound the Navajo Nation: Dibé Ntsaa (Hesperus Peak), Sisnaajini (Blanca Peak), Tsoodzil (Mount Taylor), and Dook'o'oosliid (the San Francisco Peaks).
