Located in Valle de Guadalupe «Mexico’s Wine Country», Baja California, Endémico Resguardo Silvestre is a set of twenty independent rooms of twenty square meters each, operated by Grupo Habita, a Design Hotels member; established within a surface of 99 hectares, part of the Encuentro Guadalupe development, which includes a winery as well as a residential area.

One of the main premises was not to interfere directly with the land, as part of the philosophy of the project is to respect nature in every possible way. Our client’s access to steel lead to the design of the core structure in this material. This elevates the skeleton of the room, named EcoLoft, in order to avoid contact with the soil. The employment of corten steel to cover it, which over time changes its color, helps to achieve a harmony between the environment and the building.

The approach of the design of the room comes from the concept of a “deluxe” camping house, covering the guest’s basic needs, being in contact with nature and the environment.
