Culunco is the name given to the paths situated in the middle of a dense vegetation, generally paths that were created for ancient villages of Latin America, like those of the Incas. This is as well the name that the architects from Al Borde chose for an excavated house in the middle of a sloping ground, surrounded by earth and trees in the Valley of Tumbaco, in Quito. The original project was composed of two houses, one of which was finally built, constructed with local materials.
The traditional as a strategy and the place as a resource.
Located in the city of Babahoyo, Provincia de los Ríos, Ecuador, the House for someone like me, is built on a vulnerable young suburb in problems of insecurity, with a population growth in increase, new constructions and individuality neighborhood.

Once upon a time in a small town called Montalvo, which had 24,000 inhabitants, 20 minutes from Babahoyo capital city of the province of Los Rios, in the coastal region of a faraway country called Ecuador. This town was a climate of about 25 °C with high average annual rainfall in the winter.
Located in the city of Babahoyo, province of Los Rios, Ecuador, is a space for experimental production of architecture and design where it currently the study of Natura Futura architecture and design laboratory visual Urbanofacto operates. The project is built to share this space within a problematic city in need of cultural interests, as a response, creating into reality objectives much closer to art.
The challenge of the architects Esteban I. Andrade A. (ea+arq) and Francisco Vásquez, in the apartments Buildings Design named Acanto, was to create a contemporary project, denoting the volumes with different textures without distorting the architectural environment of the neighborhood, that’s why we´ve used several finished as bricks, concrete and stainless steel.
With a front line of 20 mts. and 28 mts. of depth, we´ve accomplished a project of 14 departments on eight floors and two parking subsoil’s.
The project has been created on a terrain located at Bellavista, which haves as a principal attraction the excellent location and a privileged view of Quito.
In response to the need to recover Ecuador’s sites listed as cultural heritage, our professional services were hired by the Coordinating Ministry for Heritage and Culture in order to create an architectural design for a roof for the old church of the city of Baños. These sites constitute a key factor for local and regional development, as well as for that of the country in general.
The old church in Baños is located next to the current Municipality and dates from 1788. It was renovated after the earthquake of 1797, but it was finally reduced to ruins by another earthquake in 1949.
