Casa lajas
[R]
residential
Nestled in the mountains of Monterrey, Casa Lajas is a timeless architectural masterpiece that seamlessly integrates modern and classic design elements while celebrating its natural surroundings. This residence is expertly designed to take full advantage of the sloped terrain, enhancing the panoramic views of the city and creating harmonious connections between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The vision for this three-level home was to maximize available space while meeting the residents' needs, achieving a perfect balance of modernity and warmth. Each area is thoughtfully crafted to harness natural light, fostering a sense of openness and tranquility. Durable materials such as concrete, steel, Lucerna stone, and wood flooring were chosen for their refined aesthetics, while the incorporation of technological stone adds a polished and contemporary touch.
Key highlights of Casa Lajas include a dining room featuring a floor-to-ceiling window that frames breathtaking views of the city and the iconic "M" shape of the Mitras mountains. The living room, adorned with modern art and textured furnishings, invites relaxation and engagement. The terrace, complete with an infinity pool, offers expansive views of the Cerro de la Silla, extending the horizon and creating an ideal setting for outdoor living. Additionally, the basement cinema provides direct access to the beautifully landscaped backyard.
The strategic use of LED lighting enhances key interior areas, including the central staircase, while the natural stone fireplace and elegant chandeliers accentuate the spaciousness of the rooms. Casa Lajas represents a perfect fusion of modernity and classic details, offering a robust, functional, and innovative architectural solution that transcends trends.
