Architecture Wednesday: Casa Dos Sueños

The House of Two Dreams, in Merida, Mexico, consists of three main blocks. The first block consists of the three original bays; the first being the foyer and the carport. The second bay consists of a TV room, laundry, a full bathroom, an outdoor shower and a small interior patio. In the third bay is another sitting area as well as a bedroom.

Between the first and second blocks is a central courtyard with a glass ceiling and concrete curved stairway with iron railings that lead to the second-floor office and primary suite. In the next block, you’ll find the kitchen, dining room, and guest bathroom. There is also access to the covered patio and outdoor kitchen and dining area.

Between the second and third block is an enclosed garden with pool area and a small garden, before you arrive at the last block featuring  two more en suite bedrooms. Upstairs, over the main house, the primary bedroom has access to a balcony with a small tub, a full bathroom as well as a home office connected to the main room by a bridge through the central courtyard.

I adore Merida, and could easily live there in a house like this, perhaps a bit smaller?

  1. In spite of there being so much white, I could easily live there with four or five dogs.
