Perched on a verdant hillside overlooking the Zihuatanejo bay in the Mexican West Coast, Casa Acantilado is a striking new local landmark – guiding fishermen at night like an unofficial lighthouse, peeking out from the region’s thick flora, rich with native species, birds and animals. The house is the brainchild of Zihuatanejo-based architecture studio Zozaya Arquitectos, which, led by founder Enrique Zozaya, is an expert in creating idyllic private homes that blend the local and the global.
In the case of Casa Acantilado, situated on a steeply angled plot overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the architecture team developed its design ‘as an element that emerges from the rocks, focused on the making of a place, mimicking the context thanks to the local materials and forms used, putting into practice the craft techniques and the vernacular architecture of the site’.
The home’s main volume, containing the getaway’s expansive social spaces, sits slightly angled against its plot and the cliff’s incline, so as to make the most of the best vistas. Here, a large, greets visitors, offering a cool, open-air room for relaxing and entertaining.
Casa Acantilado’s other volume hosts bedrooms, as well as its signature outdoor space – an eye-catching infinity pool that makes bathers feel like they are plunging into the Pacific waters.
