The Village is another building within the same residential complex in Playa del Carmen as Costa, and it was thoughtfully designed by Sordo Madaleno. Albers S   The guiding principle behind the lobby's interior design was to embrace a straightforward approach to materiality and texture, thereby blurring the distinction between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Located in the heart of Valle de Bravo with premium views of the lake, Casa Las Cruces arose from the clients’ need to transform their weekend house, family-owned for more than 30 years, into a two-house complex with shared common areas to be enjoyed and adapted according to the family’s natural growth and usage.   The project developed along two main angles: on the one hand, the renovation of the existing house, known as House One, and on the other, the construction of a new house, House Two.   From the beginning, we knew that our proposal needed an approach that would respect its environment, but how do you renovate a 30-year-old house without losing its essence? And more importantly, without erasing the clients&... More
