This architecture revitalization project by Boue Arquitectos is located in the heart of Mexico City´s historic center, right on San Ildefonso Street. It is a four-level building that has been intervened with the purpose of reactivating its ground floor, rehabilitating exhaustively its interiors, rescuing its façade and integrating —with its use and the floating population that it will attract— new dynamics to its immediate context, which is characterized by its high commercial and tourist activity, an extraordinary cultural offer and an unprecedented historical relevance.
The market place, besides the city hall and the church, has always been the most important part of the center of the 4th district. However, from the 1970s on, the introverted late-modern market buildings and their service area occupied the public space of St. Stephen Square. The purpose of the current transformation is to give this space back to pedestrians and events by the forthcoming demolition of obsolete buildings, while the market is renewed within up-to-date frames.

The Treetops House, located on Austin’s west side, is a renovation and major expansion of a 1955 suburban ranch house. The original house (designed by Page Sullivan Page in the ‘50’s) was very typical for its time and place—a sprawling single-story, fairly nondescript affair that had small windows, and was clad entirely in Texas limestone. The challenge was to turn this into a modern house that was open, bright, and inviting, while not completely obliterating all traces of what had existed before. The new composition is one which is clearly of its time, but also respects and reflects the time and place in which the original house was created.
