Connecting Architecture And Winemaking With The Casa San Francisco Project

The Casa San Francisco Project celebrates simplicity and emotional architecture through the concept of time.

Luis Barragán’s artistic philosophy emphasizes the creation of spaces that evoke emotion and foster a connection to personal memory. The Casa San Francisco project in Mexico is a true testament to this unique ideology. 

The project that began as a request for a holiday house in a vineyard outside of San Miguel de Allende has now emerged as a splendid amalgamation of winemaking and convent architecture. 

The Jorge Garibay Arquitectos team, known for cultivating a close relationship with each project’s people, their identity, needs, and constraints, as well as their location, has successfully followed this credo with the Casa San Francisco Project as well. 

Another idea the project embodies is finding beauty in imperfections. The project emphasizes the emotional depth that spaces contain and how this depth is augmented with the passage of time.
