Otro Oaxaca in Mexico, designed by local architects RootStudio for hospitality brand Grupo Habita, reflects on the rich traditional textures and moods of its region
The launch of Otro Oaxaca invites savvy travellers to zoom into its particular Mexican locale. There are any number of reasons to visit Oaxaca, not least its fabulous cuisine, traditional pottery and hand-woven fabrics, its haul of extant Spanish colonial manses, and the pre-Columbian architectural sites at nearby Monte Albán and Mitla.
Set on the edge of the pedestrianised plaza of the 16th-century Santo Domingo de Guzmán, the high red terracotta walls of the 16-room Otro Oaxaca give little hint of what lies beyond – which is an intriguing sequence of interlocking pavilions, shadowed corridors, narrow Jenga-like staircases, and courtyards and terraces that local architects RootStudio have clad with brick, limestone, raw concrete and reclaimed wood to reflect the textured mood of traditional Oaxacan design.
