- 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
