The interior design for this apartment represents something more than just a change in scale for Boué Arquitectos. In this project, located inside an architectural revitalization development in Donceles and Héroes del 57 streets in downtown Mexico City, the design strategies were based on functionality, efficiency and flexibility of the space.
This two levels apartment configures the entire public area in the main floor —where the entrance is located— and the kitchen, a guest’s bathroom, dining room, and the living room are found. The last two the spaces enjoy a privileged view towards the National Museum of Art and have a magnificent double height, which frames large windows that open to a series of balconies where to contemplate different angles of the historical center of the city. A magnificent privilege that offers this renewed language space with a formidable historical load due to its location.

How would Wes Anderson design a chapel for Coffee?
Antilope Café is a new coffee Brand in Mexico. The 80m2 space is located within the Arboleda Development in Monterrey México and it represents the brand´s first physical space where the marriage of Chiapas coffee beans and Dulcinea´s kitchen (a local restaurant by the same owners) takes place. The design came through a series of challenges. On one hand we needed to provide a fresh and unique space that could assimilate the identity and values of the Antilope brand, the quality of it´s coffee and food, on the other hand we needed to avoid having the space feel gender specific. We proposed to create an open and bright space suitable for the worshiping of coffee — A chapel for coffee.

“Panaderia Aromas” is located in Lomas de Chapultepec, one of the most important residential and commercial areas in Mexico City.
Inside the venue, the architectural proposal melds friendly into the context in a simple, neat and fluid way. This is achieved by the use of neutral materials, such as white tile, polished basalt, wooden furring, polished concrete and eye-catching decoration.
If we talk about architecture, in recent years it seems that the trend is to use synthetic and innovative materials, which are at the same time more expensive.
Our concern for the “Raw House” project was exactly the opposite; the use natural, common and readily available materials in the city leaving them naked and exposed to appreciate their intrinsic beauty.
The first challenge came with the dimensions of plot, an urban waste resulting from a subdivided family home; the area of 6.5 x 27.5 with a west facade was not the most encouraging for housing needs.
The project is located near to the Primavera forest, where nature merges with the project.
The house emerges as a place of retreat. The client calls for the project as “stacked boxes” as she does not live with curves or inclined ways, hence arises the idea of the house-container.
