La Roca Serena
Reimagining a historic boutique hotel in Mijas, Spain. Bridging Roman, Moorish, and Andalusian architecture with contemporary minimal luxury.
The Context & History
Located in Mijas, Spain, this project sits on land that has been shaped by many different civilizations over the centuries—including Roman builders, Andalusian craftsmen, and Moorish architects.
Rather than standard modern minimalism, the spatial designs honor this layering of history. We chose raw materials, limestone arches, and rich wood details to pay homage to the Andalusian vernacular.
Distinct Identities
This is a boutique hotel where each room features its own distinct design and identity. Every space tells a slightly different chapter of the land's history through materials and geometry.
