Project Description
This modern home in Mexico City showcases Olga Hanono’s love of art and luxurious style.
“The architecture represents the modern Mexican style,” explains Hanono. “It was built by an architect that worked with Barragan, the most famous Pritzker Prize-winning architect from Mexico.”
“My home is very modern and eclectic. Each item could tell you a story about my life and how I’ve developed in my career,” Hanono says. “You’ll find a lot of priceless and personal artwork I’ve collected, stacks of books, and luxurious, oversized pillows and rugs for lounging. The color palette in the home overall has been the same since I designed it, which proves my philosophy of timeless design.”
The bathroom features floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the trees that surround the property.
The kitchen offers plenty of storage and seating, with spectacular panoramic views. The open concept is also great for entertaining. There is also a wine cave for more intimate gatherings.
The bedroom was created to feel like a boutique hotel room, with minimal clutter or furniture, and a soothing color palette. There is also a seating area where Hanono likes to spend time reading or meditating.
Hanono says her most beloved space is the library, because it’s full of beautiful books that fill her with inspiration. “I spend many hours designing at night in that room. It has a special energy. I collect the catalog/book from every art exhibition that I go to. It’s my personal collection and it reminds me of my happy places, which are museums.”
