vasconcelos' san simon house is curated with design objects handcrafted in mexico
Briefly

The San Simón House, designed by Vasconcelos Arquitectura in Valle de Bravo, Mexico, modernizes the traditional timber cabin concept into a family getaway. Nestled on a 10,000-square-meter forest plot, it connects deeply with nature. The structure is intentionally hidden from view and designed with two main volumes to separate private spaces from public ones, maximizing natural light and forest views from every room. The design emphasizes sustainability, preserving existing trees and planting new species while utilizing local materials for a harmonious rustic aesthetic.
The San Simón House integrates into its forest environment while preserving every tree on site and planting twelve new species to support the local ecosystem.
The design features large windows that frame stunning forest views, ensuring each room connects uniquely and beautifully with nature.
