Mexican modernism meets brutalism in a Ludwig Godefroy house. Godefroy is one of the most talked-about contemporary architects in Mexico over the last decade.

Spending time in Casa VO, located in a beach community in Oaxaca, felt aligned with themes in which Godefroy aims. Introspection, silence, architecture as refuge, simplicity, intention in daily living, and connection with nature, both through integration as well as in materials.

The spaces around us can have a huge impact on our lives, often more so than we care to realize. Bringing thoughtful design and creative energy into our daily routines can be deeply inspiring. They remind us to prioritize health, emotional stability, and train our minds to remain expansive—in both our personal lives and professional craft.

Mexico City Art Week is one of the most exciting contemporary art moments in the world—raw, international, intellectual, and deeply local at the same time—and it has become an event I genuinely look forward to each year. The fairs emphasize artistic and cultural celebration rather than purely commercial exchange, and every February the city transforms into a living, breathing art ecosystem filled with creative energy.

Thank you to and Wendy Posner (art advisor) for curating this weekend including private studio visits that offered intimate looks at the work of artists living and working in CDMX.

It was great to see old friends and make new. In a world divided as it is, art is always the answer.

You may notice a darker area near the gums. That’s completely normal, it’s from the laser we used to gently contour the gums, and it will heal in just a few days.

This is the journey of a smile makeover: from gum shaping, to temporaries, to the final porcelain veneers designed for a perfect, natural look.

Many times the cosmetic work I do focuses on restoring smiles following traumatic injuries. Teeth are broken or lost, parts of the jaw can be damaged and a smile can be changed forever. There’s typically a lot of emotion around this work.

We design and reconstruct someone’s smile satisfying all the technical requirements, but it’s also very personal. Besides teeth, we’re also rebuilding someone’s sense of self and the confidence they thought they’d never get back. It’s some of the hardest work we do and some of the most meaningful.

This patient was the victim of a hit-and-run accident that left him with significant dental trauma. What you’ll see next is how we rebuilt not just his teeth, but a part of his life that was taken from him in a moment.

There are two types of toothpaste: CHEMICAL and NATURAL. Which one do you use?

11/14/2025

I used to think I just had “bad breath days.” Turns out, it wasn’t me it was my toothpaste.

Big toothpaste brands are designed to feel like they’re helping achieve a clean mouth and good breath that burning, foaming sensation with an extreme mint taste. I used to think that meant “clean” but now I know it’s actually doing the opposite.

Those chemicals were actually stripping away the skin inside of my mouth (that burning sensation) and killing the good bacteria that actually protect us, leaving the odor-causing bacteria to take over, especially when the mouth dries out.

Here’s what I started looking for on labels:
Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or its derivatives: harsh detergents dries out the mouth and damages the oral mucosa.
2) Alcohol based flavoring oils like menthol: feels “fresh” but actually dehydrates.

3) Artificial sweeteners like sorbitol and sucralose: mask odor temporarily and actually feed the odor-causing bacteria that produce sulfur gases.

When I switched to a toothpaste without those ingredients, the breath comments stopped.

If you want kiss-ready breath, comment ‘MWAH’ and I’ll share the brands I recommend
