A striped wood wall and a crispy travertine marble floor, a very mid-sixties modern
Mexican style, are the frame for the striped arched windows, that fill the room with
natural light.
The lobby full of a retro vibe, is the preamble for this space of contrasts. Metallic walls in a golden tone complement the scene, where a striped travertine marble desk, is framed by plants and crowned by three spheric lamps, that make us travel to the past, without losing our awareness for the present.
Golden arches remark in a conceptual way, the relation of the metal value, with the
vocation of the office itself. Lightning achieves a cozy and domestic feel, ambient oriented but very punctual where it is needed, creating contrasts and shadows, because of the smart selection of materials.
The project reenacts the aesthetics of the revival of the financial markets in Mexico. A proposal that reimagines objects, materials and formal details which we grew up with like marble, wood and metal; the principal elements of this proposal and light the catalyst, the coat that wraps and gives its materiality to each object and form, letting them blend in contemporary design in a timeless eclecticism.
Bio Álvaro H. Félix Studio is a different kind of architecture, it stands for exploration and emotion, for technical refinement and an informed position. We focus on fundamental aspects of architecture,the relationship between people and space, the experience, the way they live the place where they stand.
We create objects, buildings, spaces, master-plans and infrastructure; our motivation is to design the most interesting places with their own soul, embracing the complexities of the world that surround us.
