Casa Estudio, Mexico
Embodying the spirit of modern Mexican architecture
Completed in 2021, Casa Estudio serves as a family residence and a creative studio for renowned Mexican architect Manuel Cervantes. Embodying the bold, contemporary spirit of modern Mexican architecture, the home feels both monumental in its presence and innovative in its execution.
The structure emanates strength while achieving an unexpected airiness through its design. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly merge the interior with the outdoors, allowing natural light to fill the space and offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The juxtaposition of raw concrete and brick with warm timber accents on the walls and kitchen surfaces creates a striking yet welcoming ambience.
This thoughtfully curated interior is enhanced by a collection of iconic furniture pieces from Børge Mogensen, including the 2213 Sofa, the Spanish Chair, and the J39 Chair. These classic designs, crafted from wood, leather, and paper cord, add a layer of warmth and texture that perfectly complements the raw architectural materials. The result is a living environment that balances harmony, sophistication, and comfort.
Bringing a place to life
Harmonious interior design caters to a spectrum of human needs — from physical comfort to emotional and social fulfilment — creating environments that respect the varied ways people live, work, and connect. A balanced approach, integrating well-crafted furniture, transforms a space into an energising sanctuary, blending connection and solitude.
