Minimalissimo


Located in Valle de Guadalupe in Baja California, the Endémico Resguardo Silvestre hotel from Mexico’s Habita hotel group, is a set of twenty independent rooms of twenty square meters each.

Designed by architect Jorge Garcia, one of the principal premises was not to interfere directly the land, as part of the philosophy of the project is to respect nature in every possible way.

Clean and minimal steel structure elevates the skeleton of the room, named EcoLoft, to avoid contact with the soil. The employment of corten steel to cover it, which over time changes its color, achieving harmony between the environment and the building. Opening in 2012.

  2. Dudes… before packing, get your geography straight… California is in a different country than Baja California…

  3. Yes Valle de Guadalupe is located in Baja California Sur in Mexico, a peaceful place away from the big city life, surrounded by nature only nature and vineyards!

    I live in Tijuana, I have visited this place, and it resembles the slum type houses that have plagued the city causing a huge urban problem, now it’s being stylized and turned into a minimalist modern day outhouse essay, thanks a lot Architects.

    We have stayed across street many times in Sordo Mundo RV park (part of a wonderful deaf ministry) and watched them being built….do feel it is a real stretch to advertise as “beach front”…don’t think u can see beach from there…but the valley is beautiful with many vineyards. One problem is they have no water and have to import it in by truck….that might have changed tho. :)
