Over the years, interior design has evolved according to the needs that arise, but above all according to the experiences that we seek to provoke in the user. In the last two years, we have witnessed a radical change and a special interest in this subject because the pandemic forced us to pay specific attention to the configuration of the places we inhabit. This brought about much more holistic designs that cater to the wellbeing of the user, combining colors, sensory experiences, technology, and natural elements that promote health.
Mexico is one of the most privileged countries in terms of climate and diversity, and when it comes to design, this opens up many possibilities to play with the temperature of the materials, the quality of the light, the wind currents, etc. We believe that interior design is fundamental in the conformation of each space and even more so when combined with materials such as wood, to offer experiences that stimulate the senses. That is why on this occasion we have compiled a list of 25 spaces in Mexico that exemplify various ways of integrating wood in interiors, some of them ranging from ceilings and floors, to design integrated into walls and fixed furniture. Read on for the full list.
