The project is erected within a lot abundant vegetation. Most of the trees were respected or relocated, to provide shadow, to generate cool breezes, and nature ventilation. The project is developed in only one level, divided into three stages (garage, service area and residential area), all of which are connected by a network of ramps and steps through gardens and loose walls. With a low maintenance selection of materials and vegetation palette (concrete, steel and wood), hand in hand with the landscape design, a state of tranquillity and peace is created, for the greater welfare of the users.
I'm a Mexican Architect, born and raised in a megalopolis, moved to the Caribbean, about 8 years ago, which change my perspective for architecture. After finishing my bachelor studies and internship, I opened with two partners a company dedicated to design and build green walls and roof gardens, this experienced made me realised that the contact with nature will be a bullet point for all my projects. Sold the company after a few years and start my own design company for architectural, interior, landscape and furniture design. Studied lightning and furniture design in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and currently studding Sustainable development in Sydney Australia. I strongly believe the our job as architects/designers is to provide a suitable place for humans with heavy interest in environmental, social and economic aspects to provide a sustainable built environment for our times and the future.
