We asked: How can we embrace our past and transmit our heritage? Casa Tosih gets its inspiration from the cultures and communities we live in. We created a space where local artisians, designers, and artist come together in order to glorify our local context and the world behind it. Casa Tosih is named after Toci (/ˈtoʊsi/; Classical Nahuatl: tocih, pronounced [ˈtó.siʔ] "Grandmother of sweatbaths“) is a deity figuring prominently in the religion and mythology of the Aztec civilization of Mesoamerica.

A temazcal (sweatbath) [temasˈkal] is a type of sweat lodge, which originated with pre-Hispanic indigenous peoples in Mesoamerica. The term temazcal comes from the Nahuatl language, either from the words teme (to bathe) and calli (house), or from the word temāzcalli [temaːsˈkalːi] (house of heat).
