Bespoke Storage and Layered Textiles in a Warm Mexico City Apartment

On the storied stretch of Campos Elíseos, directly facing the lush canopy of Chapultepec Forest, this 223-square-meter residence unfolds as a refined city retreat, intimate in scale, yet generous in experience.

From the moment you step inside, the park’s presence is unmistakable. Sunlight filters through expansive windows and twin private balconies, casting shifting patterns across the interiors as the greenery beyond becomes a living backdrop.

Listone Giordano wood floors introduce warmth and quiet elegance, grounding each space in natural texture. The atmosphere is calm and curated, with fabrics and finishes selected for their tactile richness as much as their visual harmony.

Loro Piana curtains soften the light, while upholstery in complementary tones creates a layered, serene environment that feels both sophisticated and welcoming.

The layout unfolds in a graceful sequence of well-proportioned rooms. A generous living and dining area anchors the home, designed for effortless flow, whether hosting guests or enjoying a quiet evening overlooking the treetops.
