Conceived by artist Paolo Soleri, this style of architecture creates a system where the living and the structure work together as organs do in a highly evolved being. Since 1970, this community has been striving to become the prototype for future pedestrian-oriented urban environments. Located 65 miles north of Phoenix off Interstate-17; exit 262 east following the signs. There is an onsite restaurant, gallery and free tours ($6 donation is suggested) are available for visitors every hour from 10a-4p.

“Went with my family. We could only stay one night but is was a really good experience for all of us. We're determined to make our next visit a much longer one!”

“While it may not look like much at first glance. Arcosanti is more than just a dense cluster of concrete building riding the edge of a mesa. The atmosphere and value is more than any traveler could ask for. With sprawling views of the Arizona High Desert and the small town feel that everybody secretly longs for, this is the epitome of elegance and joy.
