Located in the heart of the capital of the state of Oaxaca, Otro Oaxaca is set within a rich history and vibrant site that exudes a strong sense of simplicity and honest materiality, balancing the connection between traditional and contemporary architecture. The practical function and thoughtful details of its interior Spaces are designed to pay homage to local craftsmanship, aesthetics and materials while reshaping the accommodation experience.
酒店原址兴建于上世纪80年代，位于唐人街，毗邻标志性的瓦哈卡平面艺术学院（IAGO），事务所通过尊重场地布局的同时，有效干预和适当保持了邻近建筑之间的空间感和地形的层次，并沿用了历史名城的原始布局。
Originally built in the 1980s in Chinatown, next to the iconic Institute of Graphic Arts of Oaxaca (IAGO), the studio intervened and appropriately maintained the spatial and topographical layers between the adjacent buildings while respecting the site layout and following the original layout of the historic city.
设计将极简主义美学与城市的乡土风格相融合，砖块、山谷红土、钢材、玻璃、混凝土等材料元素交织在一起，创造出雕塑般的建筑形体，不仅很好地突出了纯粹的形式，又表达了对材料的尊重。
The design blends minimalist aesthetics with the city's vernacular style, with material elements such as brick, valley clay, steel, glass, and concrete woven together to create a sculptural architectural form that not only highlights pure form, but also expresses respect for the material.
主楼的灵感来源于Mitla十字架，将其作为一个可居住的雕塑作品呈现出来，光和楼梯交相辉映，为旅客提供了不同的居住体验。穿过保留了天然砖块色调的历史性外墙进入酒店，有一条由铁路枕木改造而成的近40米长走廊，既有着连接和起到划分空间的作用，也成为一种可能性探索的邀请。
Inspired by the Mitla Cross, the main building is presented as a habitable sculpture, where light and stairs complement each other, providing visitors with a different living experience. Entering the hotel through a historic facade that retains the natural brick hue, there is a nearly 40-meter-long corridor transformed from railway ties that both connects and divides the space, and serves as an invitation to explore possibilities.
