Casa Etérea is a luxurious isolated hideaway for two, built on the slopes of an extinct volcano, 25-mins from the town center of San Miguel de Allende. Designed as a liveable installation art piece, the mirrored house blurs the boundaries between the wild and the structured. We invite you to feel the stillness of being at one with nature in this one-of-a-kind designer residence.

The 75sqm “box-dwelling” is a beautiful and intimate space, that was designed without partition walls – making the entire house one large room. From the central living space and bedroom, floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors frame vistas of towering cliffs, while opening to connect with a decked patio area and solar-heated pool surrounded by olive and pomegranate trees. The house also features an exposed glass shower with views to a staggering ravine, and an intimate kitchen equipped with ammenities for light cooking. Remote-controlled outdoor PVC shutters were added to provide security and privacy.

To achieve a complete integration with the environment, the house runs on solar energy, collected rainwater, and uses a UV coating on the mirror making it visible to birds while remaining reflective to the human eye.
