Casa TO位于La Punta Zicatela,一个太平洋海岸的金色日落的地方,那里的海、沙和悬崖构成了一个独特的全景图。一个不寻常的建筑绿洲,让你沉浸在绝对的思考状态中。

Casa TO is located in La Punta Zicatela, a place on the Pacific coast of golden sunsets, where the sea, the sand, and the cliffs form a unique panorama. A discreet oasis of unusual architecture to immerse yourself in a state of absolute reflection.

该项目是在简约和概念优雅的印记下勾勒出来的,传统和前卫融合在一个前所未有的结构中,被大自然的静谧所拥抱。它的名字 “Casa TO “来自于在一个确定的空间里静静地沉思的想法,作为对瓦哈卡寺庙的重新诠释,只要进入它,就会产生一种激进的感官体验。

The project was outlined under the imprint of simplicity and conceptual elegance, where tradition and avant-garde are amalgamated in an unprecedented structure embraced by the tranquility of nature. Its name, Casa TO, arises from the idea of serene contemplation in a defined space, as the reinterpretation of an Oaxacan temple, which generates a radical sensory experience just by entering it.

该结构唤起了两个具有永恒之美的历史性水厂的格子图案,即伊斯坦布尔的Basilica Cistern – Yerebatan Sarayi,可追溯到6世纪,以及伦敦Finsbury公园的Hornsey Wood Reservoir,建于19世纪。

The structure evokes the lattice pattern of two historic waterworks of timeless beauty, the Basilica Cistern —Yerebatan Sarayi— in Istanbul, dating from the 6th century, and the Hornsey Wood Reservoir in London’s Finsbury Park, built in the 19th century.

针对暴露的隐私是显而易见的。通过室内景观,一个由天空、墙壁的力量以及由葡萄树、香蕉树和百香果树的植被组成的避风港被创造出来。在其600平方米的表面上,Godefroy交织着美学和功能,强调原材料纹理的诚实性,如混凝土、钢、粘土和木材。

Privacy against the exposed is evident. Through the interior views, a haven is created bordered by the sky, the forcefulness of the walls, and by the vegetation with shoots of vines and banana and passion fruit trees. In its 600-square-meter surface, Godefroy intertwines aesthetics and functionality, emphasizing the honesty of the textures of raw materials, such as concrete, steel, clay, and wood.

Casa TO的自然环境决定了它的室内设计,其灵感来自于位于原始场地上的蓝色马达加斯加棕榈树–Bismarckia nobilis的自然色调。调色板是由典型的混凝土和不锈钢色调组成的,并辅以绿松石的色调,出现在铁制品、Natural Urbano工作室的灯具和一些装饰细节中;此外还有黄色、蓝色和绿色的点缀,在玻璃器皿和由Vivenda、Alfredo Orozco的实验纺织车间和TallerOcho地毯制作的纺织品元素中形成对比。

Casa TO’s natural environment defined its interior design, which was inspired by the natural hue of a blue Madagascar palm tree—Bismarckia nobilis—located on the original grounds. The color palette is made up of the typical tones of concrete and stainless steel, which are complemented by shades of turquoise, present in the ironworks, the lamps by Natural Urbano Studio, and some decorative details; in addition to yellow, blue, and green accents, which contrast in the glassware and textile elements made by Vivenda, Alfredo Orozco’s Experimental Textile Workshop and the TallerOcho rugs.

为了传达简单和精致,家具是由来自普埃布拉、瓜达拉哈拉和瓦哈卡的专业橱柜制造商制作的,与Tiago Solís Van Beuren设计的竹制品一起,强调了质地并为环境增添了特色。这些独特的作品显示了当地人才丰富的手工艺和创造力,客人可以在公平贸易计划下购买,让一件件特殊的物品融入到他们的日常生活中。

To convey simplicity and delicacy, furniture was made by expert cabinetmakers from Puebla, Guadalajara, and Oaxaca, which, together with the bamboo pieces designed by Tiago Solís Van Beuren, emphasize the textures and add character to the environments. These unique pieces, which show the rich craftsmanship and creativity of local talents, can be purchased by guests under a fair trade scheme, allowing an exceptional object to be integrated into their daily lives.
