The project was solved through the search for intimate and private spaces, at the same time taking advantage of the landscapes and surrounding vegetation of the land, which is located in an exclusive area on the outskirts of the City of Mérida, surrounded by the Yucatecan jungle.
Inspired by the patterns of henequen fiber textiles, a suspended triangular structure is generated, covered with pieces of precast concrete made on-site, an element that marks the access to the house and provides privacy to the social areas through an interior garden.
The light becomes the protagonist in the concrete wall by generating a play of shadows on the facade, which in addition to generating aesthetic richness, lowers the incidence of the sun and heat towards the house, acting as a ventilated facade.
Inside the house, all the spaces open onto private gardens through lattices made of aluminum tubular.
On the roof, there is a roof garden that acts as a thermal insulator for the second-level bedrooms. At the same time, it allows you to enjoy the Yucatecan breeze and flora.
This area is reached through a sculptural aluminum tubular staircase which is located above the pool. The positioning of these elements was inspired by the stalactites and cenotes in the area.
The entire project is resolved according to the LEED sustainability parameters. Using rainwater collection systems for reuse in irrigation and sanitary facilities. The facades were clad with GBC approved materials.
Among other technologies that the project has that are focused on energy saving are: Home automation system and automation of curtains, green roofs, natural lighting systems through smart domes, and the covering of windows with membranes against ultraviolet rays; all together they keep the house at a comfortable temperature, which reduces the energy consumption in the air conditioning system.
