Casa Rustika was designed
by architect Jorge Gracia whose projects have
been notably featured in Dwell, Wallpaper and
Architectural Record magazines.
The architecture mixes
pure modernism and Mexican rustic style in a
unique combination, allowing guests to
experience simple but sophisticated comfort in
a tasteful minimalist environment.
ABOUT THE ARCHITECTURE
The
concept behind the design was to recreate the
spirit of the vacation house of the fifties and
sixties where family and friends would gather in
a simple communal dwelling, close to nature,
without the pretense of luxury and away from the
distractions of modern life, to enjoy each
other's company.
The
house is a clean space composed of three simple
bedrooms disposed around a central living space
which includes a kitchen with bar and a living
room area wide open to a terrace which ends at
the edge of the pool. You will enjoy your daily
dining, swimming, conversation or card games in
close intimacy with your friends or family.
Most furnishing are
custom designed and hand crafted by local
artisans. Locally available materials such as
concrete, tiles, cement, steel and wood were
used raw to minimize the impact on the land.
The house is cooled by natural ventilation.
LOCATION
Located a few
miles north of the 'Pueblo Magico' of Todos
Santos in the Las Tunas area, the house
faces the beach and is less than a minute
walk to the ocean, with views on La Cachora
surf break, in a peaceful and contemplative
landscape planted with palm trees, blue
agaves and bougainvilleas among other
plants.
Todos Santos is
magical destination year round. From
the foothills of the Sierra de la Laguna
Mountains, the pueblo looks towards the
Pacific Ocean amongst farm crops, palm
groves, mango and avocado-trees. Besides
beaches, surfing and eco
tourism, Todos Santos offers fine dining, a
lively art scene and interesting crafts.
You will love strolling past colonial
buildings, the mission of Nuestra Seņora del
Pilar, art galleries and artisans shops or
hidden gardens.
Painters,
writers, sculptors, artisans, American and
European expatriates and regular locals live
together in harmony and make Todos Santos a
fascinating place to experience.
