Architectural documentation of the Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiu, New Mexico was accomplished in June and July 1996, in accordance with the goals and standards of the Historic American Buildings Survey and the Center for Historic Architecture at the University of Houston College of Architecture. The objective of the project was to accurately measure and document the building and site.

The project was directed by Adjunct Professor Barry Moore, FAIA, of the University of Houston College of Architecture, with the assistance of field supervisors James P. Arnold and Karen Skaer Soh, graduate teaching assistant Aaron Jones, and graduate research assistant Stephen James. Members of the documentation team were graduate architecture students Paul H. Baros, Amy Harrell, Yu-Wen Diana Huang, Wade Clay Huggins, San Dinh Ma, Paul Rhodes, Gretchen Smith, Cheryl Sydow, Audrey Marie Trotti, and Penelope Van Horn. Professor David Wahlstrom of the University of Houston College of Technology directed the site survey. Their work was sponsored by the Center for Historic Architecture at the University of Houston College of Architecture, and The Georgia O'Keeffe Foundation. Further support was provided by the Susan Vaughan Foundation, Sallie Bingham, Salley Chandler and Ron Blankenship, Cornerstones Community Foundation, Michael and Ci Ci Fowler, Barbara Foshay Miller, Lisa and Stephen Schaefer, and William Stern.

The bulk of the collection consists of reports, field notes, plans, elevations, drawings and photographs.
