Casa Antonieta is organised around the stone-arcaded courtyard of a traditional family residence in Oaxaca’s historic centre. High ceilings, original masonry and symmetrical arches remain visible beside rooms finished with limewash, rattan, tropical hardwoods and local textiles. Muss Café opens directly onto the patio for coffee and breakfast, while Amá moves the social space upstairs to a rooftop terrace centred on natural wines and views across the surrounding rooftops. Patterned floors, stone columns and potted greenery connect the entrance with the upper levels, keeping the central courtyard as the architectural focus of the house.
