Hopi House, Native American craft market in Grand Canyon Village, United States.
Hopi House is a three-story sandstone building in Pueblo Revival style with small windows, stepped roofs, and interior wooden beams covered in mud plaster. Today it functions as a retail space selling traditional crafts and artwork from the region.
Mary Colter designed this structure in 1904 for the Fred Harvey Company, creating one of the first Native American craft markets at the Grand Canyon. The building shaped how tourism and commerce developed in this region.
The structure draws design elements from the old Oraibi settlement, featuring corner fireplaces and adobe walls where Hopi artisans once worked on their crafts and displayed their skills. These spaces show how craftspeople carried out their daily work here.
The building sits next to the El Tovar Hotel on the South Rim and is easy to reach from the main pathways. It operates as a retail space where you can walk through and view the crafts on display.
The second floor houses a ceremonial kiva room decorated with traditional murals painted by an unknown Hopi artist during construction. These paintings remain a quiet testament to the artistic collaboration that shaped the building.
