Museum: Hotel and ResidencesA dialogue between nature and collective life, where the territory itself becomes the primary spatial driver.
Club Museo — Hotel and Residences is conceived as a contemporary cultural landscape, as a dialogue between nature and collective life. Set along the valley of Checa, the project weaves social, cultural, and private programs into a single architectural landmark, where the territory itself becomes the primary spatial driver.
Rather than imposing a singular object, the architecture unfolds across the site as a sequence of interconnected spaces that frame views, topography, and light. Hotels, residences, galleries, restaurants, event spaces, wellness areas, and business facilities are embedded within the landscape, allowing nature to define movement, rhythm, and atmosphere. Public and private realms coexist through layered thresholds that encourage encounter, reflection, and retreat.
The project positions well-being and human experience at its core. Architecture is treated as a cinematic continuum — one that dissolves boundaries between interior and exterior, technology and landscape, intimacy and collectivity. Natural surroundings are not a backdrop but an active participant, guiding spatial orientation and reinforcing a sustainable approach rooted in place.
Club Museo proposes a timeless vision of contemporary living: a destination where culture, hospitality, and residence merge into an ecosystem designed to expand the mind and enrich daily life through a profound connection to nature.
