Text description provided by the architects. Each region of Mexico exudes its own identity and creates its own atmosphere, regardless of trends, design movements, or the Anglo-Saxon traditions that increasingly seem to crowd our calendar. This is especially true of small towns, which serve as eternal reflections of constancy—a snapshot capturing local customs and daily life. This realization led us to conclude that while architects can design anywhere (as research methods yield contextual architecture regardless of ZIP code), we faced an immense challenge when designing a hotel in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas.
