Located in the popular lakeside location of Valle de Bravo, a two-hour drive west of Mexico City sits Casa Tres Árboles, a two-story home that has been transformed by Mexican design studio Direccion. Briefed by the clients to create a sense of refuge and retreat, the aim was to emphasize the home's purpose as a weekend getaway destination.
The home is now a cocooning and tranquil space of meditation, where natural materials, that sumptuous earthy brown paint and wall texture, and clever use of light and shadow create a feeling of 'monastic sanctuary'.
