"The project is organized through a system of interwoven walls that create patios and terraces across different levels, elements that regulate light, ventilation, and privacy."
"The rhythmic repetition of the facade recalls the suspended patterns of papel picado commonly seen throughout San José del Cabo, translated architecturally through layered surfaces and openings."
"At street level, Laiva Plaza Hotel opens into a mixed-use ground floor that prioritizes permeability over enclosure, forming a public atrium that creates a shaded threshold."
"Rising above the open base, the guest rooms occupy two levels, offering a more private atmosphere without losing their connection to the surrounding streets."
