There's a New El Cosmico Just Beyond the Horizon: Opening 2026

The original El Cosmico is located on 21-acres on the edge of Marfa, artistic campground of vintage trailers, yurts, tents and other nomadic accommodations. More than simply a retreat from the modern world, the vision has been to create a living laboratory for artistic, cultural and community experimentation. To that end, the property regularly hosts concerts, art classes and skills-building workshops. An annual music festival, the Trans-Pecos Festival of Music + Love is a living embodiment of El Cosmico’s commitment to creating moments of collective joy.

The original iteration of El Cosmico will be open until at least summer 2025 – come visit for old time’s sake. 

El Cosmico: Tomorrow

Befitting the cosmic campground, El Cosmico will embark on its next adventure in partnership with the teams that are designing housing on the moon and Mars with NASA. Liz Lambert has joined forces with ICON, the leader of large-scale 3D printing and BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group, world renowned architecture firm, to reimagine and rebuild El Cosmico. The relocation and expansion of El Cosmico to more than 60 acres on the outskirts of Marfa will showcase entirely new architectural approaches made possible by large-scale 3D-printing including domes, arches, vaults and parabolic forms. In addition to 3D printed accommodations, the new El Cosmico will feature most of the trailers and tents from the existing property as well as a restaurant, pool, spa, and shared communal facilities.

The project has broken ground and will open in 2026. Reservations are not currently available for booking. 

Situated on the new El Cosmico site, the Sunday Homes residences offer living at the intersection of nature, the arts and culture that define El Cosmico. Breaking free from the limitations of traditional construction, the curved walls are made possible by the capabilities of ICON’s 3D printing technology while adding strength and beauty to the overall structure.
