Casa A24 is located in Querétaro, Mexico, in a suburb in the periphery of the city with significant growth and great capital gains. The specific restrictions of the suburb benefited the project by allowing us to create 4 facades, as if it were an isolated lot.
The house was designed for a family of 4 members that were looking for the greatest connection in the public interior space. A double height is the heart of the house, to which all spaces connect. It was sought that each of the bedrooms, which are located on the upper floor, had discreet natural lighting and ventilation from the outside, which is why a series of volumes were proposed, like closed boxes, that maintain a separation between them to give passage to the window openings.
The finishes were of utmost importance for the clients, who sought to go beyond the conventional and for each space to have a very particular and unique intention. Exposed concrete walls with floated wooden steps welcome us at the very entrance to the house. While bedrooms with wooden floors, and pink terrazzo countertops and sinks receive us in the most intimate activities. A generous kitchen with a farmhouse-type sink, blue cabinets and golden handles complement the design. Finishing of with a large centered island where most of the family quality time is spent.
All these slight contrasts were designed to withstand the demands of the daily life of a local city family.
