Discover what makes it unique
On a corner lot in northern Mérida, a tropical dwelling opens to the prevailing easterly winds, which he captures and drives through a semi-elliptical vault that crosses the lot from side to side and covers the social area. Stepped plates form the bedrooms, offering for them private views to the north.
A central courtyard flooded with controllable light bathes a stone and steel sculpture that serves as access to the upper floor and organizes the family's daily life. The corner of the lot, at the most adverse angle due to its orientation, It is capitalized by sharing it generously with the city.
