THE HOUSE
Built in the 1960s by Guillermo De ita, the house is a reference to the Mexican Modernist Movement, sharing architectural characteristics with the Frida and Diego House and Studio. It features glass walls that provide ample natural light for art creation.
The house can accommodate up to five residents per group, providing a shared studio space for four individuals and one private studio. The residency house features a kitchen, living room, garden, and all bedrooms come with ensuite bathrooms. Linens, towels and essential kitchen equipment are provided.
Visitors or partners are permitted to stay for up to seven nights. For artist duos or individuals seeking a residency with their partner, children, or family, we recommend exploring our programs at CASA LÜ SUR.
