located 50 kilometers from mexico city, the 'tepoztlan lounge' by barcelona-based cadaval & solà-morales is a relaxation space amidst
the nature of tepoztlán, morelos, méxico. the structure's triangulated footprint places three enclosed spaces at its corners, each bordering an open-air,
covered hammock area. visitors are immersed within the landscape of garden vegetation and may also enjoy the scenery from a circular pool.
circulation is uninhibited across the central space, connecting the functional rooms: a kitchenette, reading room and living area with a TV.
while framing views of the distant mountains, the concrete ceiling also frames two mature trees. their trunks pass through circular openings
within the roof.

  • Is that a mist of the most polluted city on the world on the horizon? I would hope that close to cartel central there would be a bodyguard service..I’m a Playa delCarmen person myself…all that amazing blue water as far as the eye can see. Mexico City is a scary place.

    Pashmaniac says:

    nigel says:
  • ah, see the shower..sorry

    nigel says:

    Carlos Mercenari says:
  • Come on Pashmaniac!!, neither is Mexico DF the most polluted city in the world , nor the one with the highest crime rates. You should comment on the design, not express a misinformed opinion!
