Architecture built for climate, craft, and place. Houses organized around courtyards where mass does the work of insulation, shadow does the work of air conditioning, and the open sky does the work of skylight. Volcanic stone, brick vaults, rammed earth, pink stone, adobe — materials from a few hundred kilometres around the site. Contemporary work inside a long Mexican tradition.
The Mexican house built around a courtyard. Mass, shadow, and open sky held together in one plan.
