The Project originates from the intervention of a pre-existent building located in the western area of Mexico City, reshaping it into a home-office space, with clear conditions and an eye set into the pre-existing circumstances.
The design solution takes on a residential structure from the second half of the 20th century and recycles it into a project that integrates with its immediate natural environment, shattering the hegemony of the high walls behind which the neighboring houses hide, in order to establish a dialogue that transcends the physical limitations of the project.
The variations in the depths of different planes, offer the environment a living façade, where the interior activity is guessed from the visual filters that concede intimacy to the interior spaces.
The interior-exterior duality breaks its context’s routine, offeringa canvasof textures where the concrete and granite give way to the mildness of the metal and the lightness of plastic fabrics.
To the exterior the housing peeks out without invading; whilst opening in the interior, subtlety exposing itself, balancing the volumes that are inserted in the territory.
An interplay of planes occurs inside allowing the versatility of spaces by the movement of long-distance sliding screens and wainscots formed by timber that contrast in warmth and complexity with the sobriety of the stone coatings and apparent concrete of the enclosures.
A new stairway, based on steel strips, reactivates the space where the old one stood, which gave an opportunity to re signify the ambiance of the circulations as an experience of sculptural character.
The front yard of the house marks the limits of the construction and together with the water mirrors and vegetation orient the route beneath a suspended long cover. The architectural program revolves around the home in the ground floor, leaving the studio in a privileged condition towards the garden. The living spaces in the first level have terraces and views to the exterior between and through a façade woven of plastic cables that sieve and melt together with the thick vegetation of the existing trees. The terraces and windows allow for optimal ventilation, illumination and contextualization between the exterior and interior. In the top level, the project offers a view above itself and of the wooded horizon from a roof garden that elevates to a higher plane the introspection, belonging and pertinence of itself.
该项目源于对位于墨西哥城西部地区的一栋预先存在的建筑的干预，将其改造成一个家庭办公空间，具备明确的条件，并着眼于现有的环境。该设计方案从20世纪下半叶开始采用住宅结构，并将其再利用成一个与其直接自然环境相结合的项目，打破了邻近房屋隐藏的高墙的霸主地位，以建立一种超越项目实际局限性的对话。不同层面深度的变化，为环境提供了一个活生生的立面，在那里，室内活动是从视觉过滤器中猜测出来的，这些滤镜将亲密关系让给了室内空间。内部-外部二元性打破了环境的常规，提供了一个纹理的裂缝，混凝土和花岗岩让位于金属的温和性和塑料织物的轻盈。从外部看，房屋在没有入侵的情况下向外张望；在内部打开的同时，巧妙地暴露了自己，平衡了插入在领土内的体积。平面的相互作用发生在内部，允许空间的多功能性，由木材形成的长距离滑动屏幕和壁板的移动，与石头涂层和外壳表面混凝土的严肃性形成了鲜明的对比。一个新的楼梯，基于钢带，重新激活的空间，旧的立场，这提供了一个机会，以重新表示循环的气氛，作为一种经验的雕塑性质。房子的前院标志着建筑的极限，再加上水镜和植被，在悬空的长盖子下面指引路线。建筑项目围绕着一楼的家进行，使工作室处于优越的环境中，走向花园。第一层的生活空间有露台，通过塑料电缆编织而成的外观，与现有树木的茂密植被一起过滤和融化。露台和窗户允许最佳的通风，照明和外部和内部之间的上下文化。在顶层，该项目提供了一个自身之上的视野和一个屋顶花园的树木地平线，将自己的反省、归属感和针对性提升到一个更高的层面。
