The original hand-painted house number has been preserved, serving as a nostalgic symbol and starting point for the visual identity. By studying the tiles from this and other houses in the neighborhood, a clear typographic structure emerged, guiding the digital recreation of the numbers and shaping the logo design.
The color palette was also inspired by the hand-painted tiles—blue and gold (royal combo!)—with added tonal and contrast variations to give it a more contemporary feel.
An ornamental symbol felt perfect for the occasion. Drawing from another meaningful traditional element, this abstract illustration represents the Cacho de Venado, a tropical plant often used in Costa Rican gardens.
One of Casa 41’s standout features is its central garden, where a beautiful Cacho de Venado takes center stage, its impressive size a testament to the generations it has witnessed.
The interiors are thoughtfully designed, blending historic elements with bold modern accents to create a unique, eclectic atmosphere. Each room is distinct, with carefully curated layouts that make every space photogenic and full of character.
All these meaningful elements come together to bring
