一个由充满创造力且专业知识丰富的墨西哥人组成的设计团队将老Jardin Amazons酒店改造成了具有表现力的城市空间，设计师们采用墨西哥新的设计理念，将不同的概念以及多种体验结合在一起，使得新酒店中充满了新鲜的设计元素。

The old Hotel Jardin Amazonas is transformed into an honest, expressive and urban place. Each element that makes up this new hotel is the result of a new history within design in Mexico. A cluster of concepts, unique pieces and multisensory experiences, build each space in Carlota as a result of the participation of a group of expert and creative Mexicans.

整体概念和设计
INTEGRAL CONCEPT AND DESIGN

由Ignacio Cadena带领的CADENA + ASOC.概念设计团队将建筑、室内设计和交互体验结合在一起，创造了一种轻松的城市语言，展现了墨西哥现代、开放而又多元的一面。通过仔细研究历史文脉和诸如Cuauhtémoc等特色街区的精彩之处，设计师决定将恢复并延续城市考古学作为Carlota酒店的设计理念，让过去的街区重新焕发光彩。Carlota酒店距Paseo de la Reforma大道只有几步之遥，这里的空间，物体和气味都蕴含着历史和传统，建筑要在尊重环境的前提下，对区域未来的发展做出展望。

CADENA + ASOC. CONCEPT DESIGN led by Ignacio Cadena, set out to the task of creating a unique concept of experience. Fusing architecture, interior design and communication proposes a casual urban language that speaks to us of a contemporary, expressive and dynamic Mexico. Carefully studying its immediate context and understanding the wonderful character of an iconic neighborhood such as the Cuauhtémoc, the Carlota hotel points to ideas of recovery and urban archeology, it unearths walls and discovers remnants of a vibrant neighborhood that is ready to be re-invented. A few steps from the emblematic Paseo de la Reforma, the Carlota hotel pays homage to its past and looks to the future as a concept respectful of its environment, full of contrasts, warmth, design, history and tradition that translate into unique spaces, objects, aromas and flavors.

建筑
ARCHITECTURE

Javier Sanchez事务所遵循城市发展的历史，对项目进行了建筑设计。项目恢复了部分城市空间，居民可以在这里享受更多文化活动带来的乐趣， Carlota酒店也因此成为了墨西哥城繁华都市中的一片绿洲。项目的重要任务之一是将过去和现在联系在一起，建筑的许多细节中都可以体现这个想法，如结构完成面均为混凝土，原酒店的某些特点和整体平面被保留，新旧区域之间设置图书馆和画廊商店以模糊界限等，这也成为了Carlota酒店的特点。

From the architectural perspective, led by the renowned firm of Javier Sanchez, the project follows a line of urban archeology. The recovery of a space in total decline in one of the neighborhoods with greater cultural activity in the city makes the Carlota a worthy oasis to enjoy the metropolitan landscape of Mexico City. The hotel design is the outcome of a project whose
mission was not only to renew but to achieve cohesion between past and present. Details such as the concrete finishes found throughout the structure of the facility, maintaining of some original features and the general layout of the hotel where spaces such as the library and the shop/ gallery seem to blur the barriers that separate them, make the Carlota a unique and special project.

室内设计
INTERIOR DESIGN

室内设计的概念由Ignacio Cadena和Jorge Madahuar以及Javier Sanchez公司共同创造，街区和世界性城市的概念被交织使用在了公共空间和私密空间之中，工业、技术和艺术三管齐下，在墨西哥城中创造了这座新鲜而充满包容性的新型酒店。经过精心的设计和挑选材料，酒店内的许多物件都与众不同。房间内的盥洗池从街区中的洗衣平台中汲取灵感，无瑕疵的混凝土和木制家具相互搭配，创造出了休闲舒适的室内空间。

The concept of interior design was created and designed
by Ignacio Cadena and Jorge Madahuar in collaboration with Javier Sanchez’s firm. Public and private spaces interweave the concepts of neighborhood and cosmopolitan city. Industrial, technological and artisan processes merge to create the fresh and inclusive perception of a new hotel genre in Mexico City. The new luxury “Carlota” speaks to us of a casual hotel that has been carefully planned and designed, from the honest selection of materials, unique objects such as sinks inspired by the neighborhood washing patios, to the perfectly executed furniture pieces in the rooms that fuse impeccable work in concrete and carpentry.

酒店中的细节均为专业定制，如被仔细修复的传统物品、艺术品等，这些特别的设计赋予了Carlota无可比拟的魅力。建筑外放的造型将人与街道联系在一起，大胆的设计让它成为了城市的新节点，拉近了居民和街区的距离，且在游客和本地人之间建立起了纽带。

A hotel of intimate scale that has been “tailor-made” where in every detail recovered objects, artistic manifestations and exclusively designed pieces that give the “Carlota” an incomparable character are discovered. Extroverted gestures by plastic artists remind us of street expressions and speak to us of a bold hotel concept that moves away from ideas of exclusivity to become a new urban -node- that brings the neighborhood and its inhabitants closer, always seeking to build ties and sociocultural connections between visitors and neighbors.
