Roberto Eibenschutz is a Mexican architect whose work spans urban planning, architecture, and design. Trained at UNAM and active across academic and public institutions, his practice reflects a deep engagement with the social and spatial fabric of Mexico. While known for his contributions to territorial development and housing, Eibenschutz also brought his architectural clarity into furniture and interiors — exploring modular, efficient forms rooted in mexicanidad. His designs reflect a commitment to material honesty, modernist experimentation, and lived functionality.
Design
Designed for his home in Tepoztlán, this chair reimagines traditional form through bold material intervention. Constructed from glass tubing coated in white electrostatic paint, it defies visual weight — offering an architectural silhouette that feels at once grounded and weightless. With its clean geometry and luminous presence, the Tepoztlán Chair becomes a quiet sculptural gesture. Minimal, unexpected, and refined, it reflects Eibenschutz’s ongoing dialogue between clarity, experimentation, and spatial poise.
