Dupuis Launches Mar de Cortés Collection at Mexico City Flagship
Mexican design firm Dupuis has unveiled its new collection, Mar de Cortés, comprising ten teak wood pieces inspired by the Sea of Cortés. The collection explores the dialogue between material, climate, and time, emphasizing biophilic design with organic forms and soft lines. Founded in 1973, Dupuis has a 50-year legacy tied to Mexican architectural modernism, notably influenced by architect Luis Barragán, whose work shaped the brand's identity through the Casa Prieto López project in El Pedregal. The launch includes an immersive installation at Dupuis's flagship store in Mexico City, where the ten pieces are presented in a sensory experience highlighting light, materials, and textures. The collection also appears in the 89th edition of Glocal Design Magazine, titled 'Visionarias del espacio,' which features 15 female architects and interior designers and has two collector covers by Prince Láuder and Jimena Estíbaliz.
