位于太平洋海岸前，沉浸在墨西哥瓦哈卡州La Barra de Colotepec的景观中，由墨西哥建筑师Alberto Kalach设计，Sforza房屋从意识到环境的想法中发展。对环境的思考和尊重被描述为”（……）瓦哈卡海岸的一个地方–科洛特佩克河三角洲与大海交汇的地方–萨宾斯、红树林、图勒树和橡树拥抱着这个旺盛的避难所，使人有幸与本质和自然之美重逢，而不需要人工。”
Located in front of the Pacific Coast and immersed in the landscape of La Barra de Colotepec, in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, and designed by the Mexican architect Alberto Kalach, Sforza House develops from the idea of being aware of the environment, the contemplation and respect for the environment that is described as a “(…) place on the Oaxacan coast –where the delta of the Colotepec river converges with the sea– the sabines, the mangroves, the tulles and the oaks embrace this exuberant refuge to privilege a reunion with the essential and natural beauty without artifice. ”
该建筑由三个体量组成，与一条走廊相连，一条细细的凹线从那里穿过。它引导游客走向一个绿松石水的月亮，该月亮有四个台阶。这些体量由十个拱顶组成，面向太平洋，提供壮观的红色色调的日落，促进双倍或三倍的高度以及正确的空气流通，瓦哈卡海岸是一个具有热带气候的地方，年平均气温为20ºC。
The building consists of three volumes that connect with a corridor where a thin concave line passes. It guides the visitor towards a moon of turquoise water that descends four steps. These volumes are made up of ten vaults that face the Pacific Ocean, granting spectacular sunsets in reddish tones and facilitating double or triple heights as well as correct air circulation, the coast of Oaxaca being a site with a tropical climate where the annual average oscillates 20ºC.
内部和外部空间的设计都遵循总体概念和大地色调，该地区的隔断和涂料似乎是由沿海的沙子制成的。另一方面，混凝土和木质横梁交叉在一起，以发挥不同的高度，让人们在不同的水平上进行有趣的沉思，在不同的氛围中，由场地的温度、太阳路径以及海浪运动的视觉和声音体验产生。
Both interior and exterior spaces are designed integrally following the general concept and earthy tones where the partitions and coatings made in the region seem to be created from the coastal sand. On the other hand, concrete and wooden beams intersect the volumes to play with the different heights that allow interesting moments of contemplation at different levels, in different atmospheres generated by the temperature of the site, the solar path, and the visual and acoustic experience of the movement of the waves.
每个拱门上都有一个定制的木门，上面有小百叶窗，在不完全遮挡景观的情况下提供隐私，而且还可以让空气流通，在11个房间内创造一个更舒适的气候，分为初级、高级和主人。水槽和浴缸等固定家具给人的印象是在现场雕刻的，就好像这栋建筑一般，是在原地发现的石头，被雕刻成可以居住的样子。
A custom-made wooden gate is applied to each archway with small blinds that provide privacy without completely obscuring the view of the landscape, and that also allows air circulation to create a more pleasant climate inside each of the eleven rooms, divided into junior, senior, and master. Fixed furniture such as sinks and bathtubs give the impression of having been carved on-site, as if the building, in general, was a stone found in situ and sculpted to be inhabited.
另一方面，正如企业家Ezequiel Ayarza Sforza，Sforza Hose的所有者所指出的。”室内环境是由来自公认的工匠工艺地区的作品组成的，如来自特奥蒂特兰山谷的地毯、瓦哈卡山谷的纺织品、尤卡坦的吊床、椅子和窗帘以及韦拉克鲁斯的棕榈灯。它们与来自瓦哈卡山区的装饰元素和设施相结合，在Pueblo del Sol工场由陶艺家、橱柜制造商、农民和养蜂人制作，这是一个可持续生产的项目，由于Casona Sforza的贡献和支持，该项目得以持续进行。 ”
On the other hand, as entrepreneur Ezequiel Ayarza Sforza, owner of Sforza Hose, points out: “The interior environments are made up of pieces from regions recognized for their artisan crafts, such as rugs from Teotitlán del Valle, textiles from the Oaxaca Valley, hammocks, chairs and curtains from Yucatán and palm lamps from Veracruz, which are combined with decorative elements and amenities from the Oaxacan mountains, where they are made by potters, cabinetmakers, farmers, and beekeepers, in the Pueblo del Sol workshops – a project of sustainable production, where the continuity is possible thanks to the contributions and support of Casona Sforza.”
作为一个以整体方式设计的项目，重点放在了该地的美食上，这反映了生态和社会责任的重要作用。这就是为什么斯福尔扎宫致力于基于从农场到餐桌原则的烹饪建议，保证每道菜的原料的新鲜度，这些原料来自当地生产者的果园，尊重季节性和非密集的收获周期。
Being this a project designed in an integral way, an emphasis is placed on the gastronomy of the site which acquires an important role reflecting an ecological and social responsibility. This is why Sforza House is committed to a culinary proposal based on the farm-to-table principle, guaranteeing the freshness of the ingredients of each dish, which come from the orchards of local producers that respect the seasonal and non-intensive harvest cycles.
