Architectural masterpiece by Javier Senosiain, unique organic design

Acueducto Morelia 26, Vista del Valle, 53296 Naucalpan de Juárez, Méx., Mexico Get directions

"Along a quiet street in the Naucalpan de Juárez neighborhood on the outskirts of Mexico City, I lift a cold metal ring to open an oval, snakeskin-patterned metal door framed by a minty green wall and step into a cavernous foyer where I take my shoes off as instructed; the fluffy white carpeting underfoot continues up the curved, carpeted walls and into a whitewashed tunnel, with a series of scalloped steps guiding me deeper. Designed and completed by Mexican architect Javier Senosiain in 1984 and inspired by the eclectic works of Antoni Gaudí and the modernist structures of Frank Lloyd Wright, it opened to the public for the first time in late 2020 (currently under renovation, with a full reopening later this year) and embodies his organic-architecture philosophy: no straight walls, a harmonious meeting of human habitation and the natural world, and spaces meant to feel like a womb, a cloister, or a cave. The layout opens into an expansive living room marked by a curved white leather sofa, a hanging rattan swing seat, and an original gold leaf chair by Pedro Friedeberg; a sandy-hued carpet flows through the entire home, with walls and ceiling in the same color for chromatic continuity, and in the sleeping areas, custom circular beds reinforce the sensation of dwelling within the earth." - Michaela Trimble
incredible house designed by Javier Senosiain. it's a little outside the city but so worth it. Make a reservation.
@kimberlyytj Here’s how to tour the private properties of Javier Senosiain which includes Parque Quetzalcóatl! • Option 1: through the official website which can be found on their ig page and a quick google search. I tried emailing them as many videos said this was the only way to do it but when they got back to me they just referred to the same link. • Option 2: Traveling beetle organic architecture tour (What I ended up doing do to my very last minute trip to CDMX) • Option 3: Booking a stay at either “Conjunto Satellite” or Parque Quetzalcoatl on Airbnb #cdmx #cdmxtiktok #traveltiktok #travelbucketlist #mexicocity
