VALLARTA

Located at the foot of the Puerto Vallarta Marina, Vallarta House has an architectural design based on bringing the unique landscape of the Pacific Bay into the residence without compromising the user’s privacy. Inspired by California’s beach homes, the interior design is a mix of contemporary architecture and elements from the 1950s. Colors and textures such as linen were chosen to evoke the comfort and freshness of those homes, while wood furniture and vintage accessories add a touch of the elegance of that age.

The use of such materials as natural stone and concrete walls imprinted with wood grain texture helps mitigate the heat, reducing the need for air conditioning. The concrete was employed mainly in the front of the residence, in a vertical garden installation that gives a fresh, natural look. Based on this concept, rooftop gardens were installed. Because there is a multilevel building adjacent to the rear of the house, it was important for the roof to be integrated into the landscape and provide a pleasant view for the neighboring building’s users.

The main objective was to create multifunctional spaces within the house that would open towards the view. To accomplish this, both levels of the home feature areas with floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to the terraces. The amenities were designed to allow family and guests to enjoy many activities: a gym, a home theater, two Jacuzzis, a pool with a terrace, a fireplace, the living room and the dining room, as well as eight bedrooms that create a full experience and welcome the outdoors into the heart of the residence.
