The main propose was to create a small business office project for a manufacturer of vulcanized footwear with export quality.
The challenge was to use the least possible space and resource and at the same time improve the space quality of Associates, so there for we proposed to generate an office annex that could dialogue with the existing industrial environment and at the same time create a building that contrast through time and space.
The project foresees the opportunity to use reinterpretation as a consistent creative tool. By mimicking orientation strategy and a very simple functional diagram, the new construction relinks to the notion of history and accustomed-living behavior patterns. Open space allow direct sun light to enter from the south side, east and west side are offset inner plot, so only north side is at property line. The idea is to transit from a 2,754 sq.ft. Old construction to a 1,937 sq.ft. one, mainly same program, roughly different space quality experience.
A housing prototype was developed seeking to break with the traditional scheme of serial developments in the region, where the priority is given to having as many “spaces” as possible within the less surface.
The premise of the project was to start recovering the feeling of home and not just refuge, by prioritizing the minimum spaces to be able to inhabit correctly with dignified measures. A central patio gives the house a changing interior landscape that not only ventilates and illuminates the spaces, but can also be used as a space for coexistence.
“La Ganadera” is a commercial building for a local association of livestock farmers in the city of San Francisco del Rincón, Guanajuato. The architectural program attends the following needs: meeting area, offices, drug store, warehouse, kitchen and terrace.
The emplacement is given in the corner of a main street that seeks an immediate visual answer, through a dynamic composition and the acknowledgement of a solid material composition.
Located 10 kilometers (6 miles) from the town of Cuerámaro in the state of Guanajuato, the Templo Umbral – or Threshold Temple – is the first building constructed by the Hare Krishnas in the region since they arrived there in 2012.
Located in one of San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico most exclusive gated communities this residence follows all the guidelines established by the developer using the regional materials and colors, however the project´s treatment marks a clear distinction waiving to the Mexican clichés translated to architectonic ornaments.
Consequently, the materialized design maintains a contemporary language in harmony with its immediate context and the region, but with clear geometrical formal elements, favoring in the exterior and interior of the house, transparency, and simplicity.
The project’s protagonist it’s a great mesquite wich already has been growing in the land, the site has a much longer than wide proportions, therefore, and it was decided to enlarge the promenades inside the house in order to have the largest amount of living space, but withouth residual spaces.
This project was an exhaustive exercise of integration between the mesquite with the house, where the result was a synergy between the natural environment and the building, as well as a constant interior-exterior relationship.
Casa MA is a 267.5 sqm (2879.3 sqft) residential project, located in León, Guanajuato, México.
A rock base is proposed in order to level and respond to the natural site’s slope. The shape of the house is simple and compact, with the purpose of having a standard building process, making its development economic, while accomplishing the local constructive/design requirements.
Built between two leaf-vegetable production warehouses, the idea behind this project was to locate the complex’s offices in a space that would draw attention to the constant interaction of the management departments in order to create a harmonious environment, moving away from the traditional office feel and toward a collective experience of working together with a shared purpose.
