In Torre Cervantes, one of the most ambitious and luxurious residential buildings in the Polanco neighborhood of Mexico City, MANUEL TORRES DESIGN has designed a stunning home full of elegance, luxury, exclusivity and luminosity; all a work at the height of its owner, a famous Mexican singer of international fame. The international design studio configures an integral interior design centered on the amplitude of the spaces, as well as a mix of eclectic-New York style, avant-garde and highly sophisticated.
The house that was originally in gray work, is located in the largest mixed-use real estate complex in Latin America called Plaza Carso, specifically Torre Cervantes, which has majestic residential and corporate buildings, a great socio-cultural offer such as the Soumaya Museum, the Cervantes Theater and the Jumex Museum; that harmonizes with its unmistakable environment of Polanco and breathes the unmistakable exclusivity and status of that area in constant growth.
The residential project with a fully glazed and ovoid facade, enjoys wonderful views of the most modern and modern skyline of Mexico City and has the latest trends in comfort, finishes, technological contribution and unique materials of great quality and from different parts of the world. Its design is the delight of any lover of avant-garde, contemporary and author’s style and unique design offered by MANUEL TORRES DESIGN; also the development, also has important common areas such as spaces for swimming pools, gym, fitness room, party halls, gardens and private heliport, among others.
In its design, it breathes an innovative air of vanguard and sophistication, together with an eclectic-New York style with the warm atmosphere of the Mexican character. In all the space we will find sculptural designs and winks towards nature, the world of art and the use of noble materials with great personality that will be present throughout the different areas of the house.
The residential project has a useful area of approximately 540 m2, which is distributed in several areas for the enjoyment of all its inhabitants and guests. The day areas are related to each other; Entrance hall, guest bathroom, kitchen, family room, dining room and living room, function as a whole that interrelates so that all people interact there and where the main public areas can be made independent by hidden sliding panels.
The Hall is characterized mainly by reflecting the result of innovation and exclusivity that will later be seen throughout the house. We receive a parquet carpet in walnut and its perimeter covered with exclusive black marble in leather finish and its sloping walls that conceal the access doors to other areas and whose thickness of leaves are about 50 cms. The wood is combined with borders and a perimeter eave to ceiling in stainless steel in polished mirror finish, which reflects a greater amplitude and spatial volume. On the roof has been applied silver leaf and its central area is a sculptural lamp with indirect light and emulates the liquid silver that is in the same roof. In the background there is a hidden sliding panel, which can be opened or closed to make the area of the Main Hall independent.
One of the “jewels in the crown” of this house is the inclusion and design of La Capilla, which has an enveloping and magical atmosphere, thus generating peace, tranquility and harmony in these sacred spaces, both day and night and all based on the materials used and the study of lighting that emphasizes the design of the ceiling that refers to the pages of the Bible and where you can read the prayer of the Our Father and the images of the Virgin of Guadalupe and the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the latter made by hand in Mexico and by Italian experts in the ravening art of the mosaic. The baroque Christ was placed on the front wall and lacking its cross, the marble was reduced by its back and the cross also appears illuminated by turning on the light. The walls also acquire a great personality, as they are covered with whole pieces of Turkish marble and installed in a book. That is to say, the veins are arranged in continuity throughout the coating.
The Guest Room, is another space that is positioned as a great protagonist thanks to the natural material in Onyx that we find in the sink of exclusive design and sculptural character, as well as in the vertical walls of the toilet. Thanks to an intelligent game of facing mirrors, a kaleidoscopic effect is created that magnifies the beauty of the stone, creates a dance of lights and an effect of infinity.
The kitchen is projected as a space mainly of comfort and functionality either for its manageable size as for its distribution. Luminous, natural and technically evolved, it is a kitchen that is also designed to measure and expresses an innovative and informal housing concept. It is determined by a central island that houses the cooking area and an auxiliary sink, which facilitates freedom of movement. Account, likewise, with a natural urban garden that allows its users the luxury of harvesting their own species and vegetables. It is also worth mentioning that different materials are used that provide an aseptic design typical of the room and that emulates the concept of a laboratory. All the furniture has also been made to measure and by a finish in retrolaqueados glasses in white.
The day area is a very large space that functions as a Family Room, Dining Room, Living Room and Library. Likewise, the Main Hall, where the protagonist is the grand piano, is strategically located on the side of it and this in turn is the focal element that is centered on the axis of the Hall. On the other side of this space is the Bar, unique design in wood and Onyx of singular excellence and lighting, modern and avant-garde character that accentuates this space of light and color, being crowned by the extraordinary views of the most modern skyline of the city from Mexico.
On the other hand, in the night area, a total of three full bedrooms are located and composed of the main Suite and two other spacious and comfortable suites that have private bathrooms and individual dressing rooms to offer their users maximum enjoyment, comfort and break. The Main Suite has a reading and study area, two independent and quite spacious luxurious dressing rooms, as well as a large bathroom with exceptional panoramic views that incorporates a double shower, spa area, hygienic cabin and also two independent areas of sinks and storage cabinets.
In short, this apartment is characterized by the use of noble and natural materials such as wood and marbles of great personality and monumental character. And for its exclusive design, innovative and avant-garde in all environments and elements that make it up, also highlighting especially the study of personalized lighting in all its environments and the formidable panoramic views.
The great residential luxury touches the sky of Mexico City under the signature of the International Study of Architecture and Design MANUEL TORRES DESIGN. Exclusivity and its unique designs are the leitmotiv of the project and the main characteristic of its Author’s Signature. Enjoy from each area of the privileged views of Mexico City, or take a bath contemplating the skyscrapers from the top are some of the exclusivities that the study emphasizes with this new residential project.
