Located in the vibrant San Antonio neighborhood of San Miguel de Olende, a new design-forward escape invites passengers to slow down and live within the creative spirit of contemporary Mexican crafts. MesoniaWhich opened in June 2025, is the latest composition of artist and designer Daniel Valerofounder of Mastiz StudioAnd this converts the idea of the boutique into a completely immersive design experience.
Away from a traditional hotel room, Mesonia serves as an experimental living space – part private retreat, part living gallery – where every surface, stability, and furnishing crafts tells a story of crafts, culture and location. The inner part of the rented suit was brought into life with architectural cleverness May EstudioWhose approach weaves heat and harmony in the bold, organic vision of Valero. By branding, by designer Daniel Martinez LarsenThe essence of Mesonia converts into a clean, contemporary identity that reflects the balance of suite between heritage and modernity.
Inside, every detail is the custom, including furniture, lighting, woven fabrics, ceramic, and architectural details, all are designed by the studios and have been brought to life through artisan techniques developed in collaboration with master craftsmen from Baji region and master craftsmen from northern Mexico. It is a place that feels deeply vested while remaining fresh and original.
The suite is a sensory treatment, brought together by a vivid and joyful color palette – Sky Blue Walls, which miracity to the endless sky of San Miguel, the accents of the magenta that activate the space, caramel tone that echo the sunlight, and the Kelly Green Touching Recalls the Green Touching of the green. These hues threads through everything from handwowan rugs to ceramic tiles, creating a visual rhythm that is both grounded and uplift.
Guests will find a calm king-shaped bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a lounge designed in hand-made built-in clothing with a lounge and a private roof designed for moments of cool thinking. The textured walls, biological materials, and artisans make a touch background for daily life, invite guests to touch, explore and gender.
Mesonia embraces the rhythm of independent life-there is no staff or restaurant on the site-allows to move forward at their own pace. Just steps away, nervous with everyday life on the streets of San Antonio: Family -run bakery, open air markets, and artist studios provide a glimpse in the neighborhood creative energy.
