Endémico















Located in Valle de Guadalupe in California, the Endémico Resguardo Silvestre hotel from Mexico’s Habita hotel group, is a set of twenty independent rooms of twenty square meters each.

Designed by architect Jorge Garcia, one of the principal premises was not to interfere directly the land, as part of the philosophy of the project is to respect nature in every possible way.

Minimal steel structure elevates the skeleton of the room, named EcoLoft, to avoid contact with the soil. The employment of corten steel to cover it, which over time changes its color, achieving harmony between the environment and the building.
