Shift Your Reality: A Creative Urban Oasis
Cross the threshold of this apartment, and your perspective shifts. Designed by an artistic duo who head up a creative studio with a mission to “surpass the real”, this spacious city apartment defies categorization. It’s definitely playful, decidedly colorful and uniquely comfortable, a hideaway laid out to welcome relaxation and refreshment, dreamtime and down time—an urban space designed to shift your reality and bring you inner peace.
A completely redesigned apartment in swanky Polanco, known for its elegant boutiques and leafy plazas, this vacation home rental in Mexico City was created as a playground for the senses. It’s a unique address in the well-heeled neighborhood, a delightful hideaway that favors kaleidoscopic décor and a style that’s vivid, funky and otherworldly.
The location’s chemistry between playful design and intentional comfort is what makes this creative escape exceptional. Two bedrooms are tranquil and artsy, furnished a little like art-therapy enclaves with pop pieces on the walls, retro objects accenting the décor, and cozy natural linens in soothing organic tones. Two and a half bathrooms keep the playfulness alive, set with out-of-the-box fixtures and pops of color.
A piano occupies one corner of the open-plan living room, and color bloc cubbies line walls or create dividers within a living space that's layered with rugs and decorated with textural accents, whimsical vintage finds, and contemporary art. The kitchen has ample space for realizing culinary inspirations as well as bar seating with views onto the patio. Stainless steel appliances are offset by a deep ebony sink and a one-of-a-kind Ettore Sottsass countertop that the owners shipped by boat from Chile. A breakfast nook off the kitchen presents a cool retro vibe from its spindle table and chrome dinette chairs, and the plant-lined flagstone patio features a bistro table, fun Adirondack rocker and night fountain.
Promoting play, the artsy owners offer a vinyl station to spin records, a video projection area, yoga gear, and plenty of curiosities throughout the apartment to capture your attention.
