From striking architecture to eclectic interior elements, these luxury hotels—which have recently opened or are slated to welcome guests soon—offer plenty of inspiration for the design lover, and ideas worth replicating in our very own spaces.
HOTEL TERRESTRE
Oaxaca, Mexico
Mexican hospitality pioneer Grupo Habita owns various boutique hotels, each with its own personality. Its latest opening, Hotel Terrestre, represents a turning point in its quest for sustainability. “We have spent the past decade designing and building sustainable hotels, starting with Hotel Escondido, and now we have achieved the pinnacle with the 100 per cent solar-powered Hotel Terrestre,” says Rafael Micha, co-founder of Grupo Habita.
Nestled in a lush jungle, Hotel Terrestre is a group of seven brutalist-inspired buildings envisioned by architect Alberto Kalach and his team at Taller de Arquitectura X, along with interior design studio RB + K. Crafted with locally sourced materials such as brick, wood, clay and sand, the property also features innovative passive cooling techniques rather than relying on air-conditioning.
Adding a sense of luxury to the 14 interconnected villas are custom furniture by Mexican designer Oscar Hagerman; the Ruiseñor (“mockingbird” in Spanish) chairs, in particular, are a favourite of Micha. While it might be challenging to replicate the enormity of the hotel’s sustainable ethos in your home, more manageable tweaks such as using less glass and choosing natural materials for your furnishings are steps in the right direction.
