This is a bohemian style design project in which various patterns in this style can be seen in the form of handicrafts. For example, traditional Iranian or Indian motifs, etc., each piece of decoration is part of a culture, memory and geography, and as a result, without putting this collection together, the boho style will not be formed.

Located on a rural site on Whidbey island, a local family sought a new home and retreat on their family farm. Out of respect for turn-of-the-century agricultural buildings on the property, the home tucks into the edge of a densely forested hillside, overlooking chicken sheds, a weathered red barn, cattle fields, and a fishing pond.

The property is located in the municipality of San Pedro, Nuevo León, approximately in the valley of Monterrey. This starting point defines the configuration of the project. The privileged environment, with a slight slope that descends to the south and some main views that open in the same direction, allowed the project to adapt naturally.

Originally built as a modest beachfront cabin in the 1960s, and subsequently modified through a series of piecemeal renovations, by the time our client acquired the house its design integrity had long ceased to exist. The forested property, however, was ideally suited to the creation of a quiet refuge with direct connections to nature.
