The Design

About Saint Peter House 住宅は

参加型デザイン、ローテク、ハイカスタマイズの哲学に基づいて設計されたこの家は、サンペドロチョルラ地域で古くから建設システムにおける地元労働者の知識から広く使用されている材料であるレンガから着想されました。家の主要な外皮には、レンガを収容するための 3 つの形式があります。表現力の出発点である二重壁、格子、スパイクが、開口部に窓を設けたり、場合によっては二重の半固体ファサードを通して内部空間を閉じたり、自然光を取り入れたり、換気したりする機能的な方法で配置されています。

Production Technology
Hand made bricks, some artifacts are manufactured by means of different materials and local crafts such as sinks, inspired by metate, a pre-Hispanic material of volcanic origin and high resistance made by artisan women. Metal lighting fixtures and switches manufactured by blacksmiths and turners from an exclusive design.
Design Challenge
The house is architecturally designed so that it responds adequately without the need for high maintenance over time to the adverse climate of Cholula of more than 2000 meters above sea level, close to the tropic of cancer and at a distance of approximately 50 km from the crater of the active volcano Popocatepetl that in Nahuatl local language means mountain that smokes.
Research
It is an example of the creative potential that exists through the relationship between workers, architects and clients in an inclusive, equitable and diverse setting where the parties actively intervene in the architectural process providing autonomy, resilience and well-being
Inspiration
Designed from the philosophy of participatory design low tech high customization, this house is conceived from the bricks, a material widely used in San Pedro Cholula region in an ancestral way from the knowledge of the local workforce in the construction system. Through the collaboration between workers, architects and the client, a house of high sophistication is achieved through plasticity.
Project Duration
Duration: 12 months
Location: San Pedro Cholula, Puebla, Mexico
Operation Flow
One of the most relevant architectural design factors arises precisely from the possibility of housing growth in the medium or long term, leaving preparations in structure and facilities to be able to house other spaces as it goes growing the family or its purchasing power.
