Cristina Faesler, a passionate about culture and her beautiful house

A living and reading room is located to the center of the bedrooms, today painted in tone «Burning», color of the year 2024 That Cristina, together with a team of experts, selected for Comex. In addition to pieces of Mexican designers selected by the AD team for the cover, objects from the Faesler collection, Russian rugs, volumes of ABCDFpieces in Cuentepec and Friedeberg chairs. An unusual interaction that, in Cristina's head, was natural, because it was her daily work transferred to her home: «having a space that receives other visitors and that they integrate as if they had always been there is very beautiful, in the end, it is what I do, but it was very fun to work with the entire art direction team and see how everything found their place.»

No matter the perfection that is glimpsed in every corner, because it is destined to transform, because that is life. Walking through the house is to stop in the details to listen to its originhis voice, because – even – next to a daily object taken from context is a piece of museum of great name. While running from bedrooms, you learn from history and, above all, from life and philosophy Behind the knowledge of Cristina who, at the same time, moves home. And the first lesson? «Everything is finding its place». The accommodation does not depend on trends, colorimetry, styles or hierarchies, but on contemplation and an imaginative exercise in which the pieces dialogue between them and with the environment. The statuettes are accommodated as a conversation, the books form exquisite corpses of authors and themes and textiles are opposed as passport stamps, recalling the trips of Mateo and Cristina. There we find the second lesson and, perhaps, the one that prevails most throughout the residence and at Faesler's work: «Recognize and celebrate life».

Although along the route there is a conductive thread, The distribution is organized by specific spaces that Cristina calls «altars»an inheritance of his mother who, beyond providing cohesion to space, honor and celebrates key moments, processes he admires and people who marked his life. There are altars to the artisanal legacy, for example, a collection of molcajetes of Puebla and Morelos; Multiple pieces in mud conceived by artisans of Cuentepec, Morelos, and vases with nonlinear narratives from San Agustín Oapan, Guerrero; altars to her loved ones with pieces, for example, of her mother, the artist Cristina Bremer or of his friend and accomplice Jerónimo Hagerman, of whom we also found a yellow sculpture in his garden. “In this house it is seen that absolutely everything is made of altars. My mom had a religious, not orthodox form, to have special spaces to relate to your environment, and I stayed with her. I like to pay tributes, turn to look closely at those spaces and objects that accompany you, ”he recalled.

In that sense, Your home is a process under construction, because your history and ideas do not finish writing; A lesson of intuition, curiosity and experimentation, in whose final lesson an interior design is achieved with a soul that leaves space for creativity and surprise: «Imagination is what humans deserve”, Concluded Cristina Faesler.
