The Clubhouse Valle San Nicolás, located on the edge of the village of Valle de Bravo in Mexico State, brilliantly celebrates its surroundings with a 360° view of the landscape. This geometric construction is the work of Sordo Madaleno Arquitectos. The Mexican architecture studio shows how natural conditions, such as the mountain and the lake, can converge and connect through a work of architecture.
The idea for this project, completed in 2021, was inspired by a boat anchored in the lake as if it were floating. The plan of this circular design is fragmented around its radius, allowing the different zones to be installed, separated by mirrors of water. Two rings, inner and outer, serve as open corridors where you can move around and enjoy the view. A central walkway shortens the route and leads to the main deck, before reaching the infinity pool. The east side features a dining room, barbecue, kitchen and related services. The west side features a gym, spa cabins with Jacuzzi, changing rooms with steam room and sauna. The cross-laminated timber structure features exposed beams and columns, while the interiors deploy a palette of natural materials, such as volcanic stone, Kebony wood for the terrace and American red oak for the roof. A new address for relaxation and well-being to put on your bucket list, to experience a total connection with the surrounding nature.
