UNA CASA DOS CULTURAS is a project that was born with the intention of reforming a house located in Atarfe, Andalusia, as a rural tourist house. As its name suggests, it is a house that manages to bring together two cultures from the interior design; the Andalusian and Mexican within the same territory.
It is a new concept of lodging and tourism for guests. It offers a multicultural experience where interior design plays the true role of connecting people with a second culture. This proposal not only arises as a solution after the adversities of covid 19, but also as a call to the hospitality industry to look for a new way of traveling through creativity.
The main objective is to unite these cultures in a new spatial identity with its own character that is resolved from my personal touch and essence as a designer.
Materiality is used as a design solution to respond to the main objective. The materials that these different territories have in common are investigated. For this we have as a reference in Andalusia the farmhouses and for Mexico the haciendas, which have their origin in Mexico since the New Spain.
