Embracing Beach Style in Acapulco: Delightful Home in Aqua and Turquoise

The city of Acapulco is renowned for its sand, surf and good times all around. It is a city where many tourists flock to enjoy the unending coastline and with it a chance to get a good tan! But we head to this Mexican city today to take a look at Departamento JM; a home that was revamped and given a fresh new look by Weber Arquitectos. The interior of this apartment overlooking the Pacific was previously draped in colors like beige and chocolate before its new owners asked for a color palette that was more befitting of the neighborhood it sits in. A shift towards modern beach style saw the apartment’s overhauled interior being draped in white, aqua, turquoise and light, white woods that epitomize life next to the ocean.

Entry with brilliant accent wall in aqua along with fabulous sconce lights makes a big visual impact








Step into the apartment and the first thing you notice is a brilliant Aqua and turquoise accent wall that is illuminated by sconce lights that act as artistic pieces. The entry sets the tone for rest of the house with latticework in wood separating the two. The open plan living area contains the kitchen and dining room as well and next to it is one of the terraces that offers unabated views of the Pacific which is just a stone’s throw away. With pops of orange, turquoise and aqua all around, there is no lack of brightness inside this Mexican apartment.

  • Salt Spring Island Residence 2

    This project was commissioned by a couple living in Vancouver who fell in love with Salt Spring Island (as many do) and decided to build their dream home on a beautiful high-bank waterfront lot overlooking views of Sansum Narrows and Vancouver Island beyond. The clients had an affinity for mid-century modern design and requested that the house be reminiscent of that style. As one ascends the driveway an accessory building presents itself containing a garage and studio. A path leads from the accessory building to the house which is nestled into a rocky hill and surrounded by several large arbutus trees. The house is a U shape plan framing a courtyard overlooking the ocean. Living spaces are arranged at the centre or bottom of the U with 2 sleeping wings on either side projecting toward the ocean. Both the house and accessory building are clad in black vertical wood siding and protected by flat roofs with generous overhangs. Large sliding glass doors provide seamless transitions from inside to outside and maximize the natural light. Walnut flooring and cabinetry are featured throughout the home to provide a richness and warmth. This home is a tranquil setting to light a fire, have some wine, and watch the eagles soar in front of a backdrop of pacific north-west magic.
