JAPI Architects was invited by WUNDERKAMMER (DF, NY and Paris) to collaborate in this Project at El Salto, Jalisco. The goal of the project was to design the corporative offices next to Cartographic´s industrial building and create a real connection between them, in a 12,000 m2 buildable area. The team’s idea was a 3 levels building next to the fabric, where the central area provides a natural sensation to the environment with its design of grass hills. This landscape has its own personality which function is to make a permanent connection between the fabric and the offices, while the vertical U-Glass stripes make possible a visual connection. The essence of the new office building is the stairs that through their triple height provide natural light to almost all the interior of the building while creating a vertical connection between the three levels. We worked together with CIVITA Consulters to assure a LEED certification, this accredits a low energy consume and a low damage to the environment.
