Casa Cuata II
A white cube compresses the first stage of construction of a residence in a suburban family cluster of narrow grounds, the double height windows refresh the interiors while the polished finishes resist the intense weather of the Mexican southeast.TWIN HOUSE II is a progressive residence that belongs to an arrangement of two houses in a subdivided estate located in a private suburb of Villahermosa.

The neighborhood has variable lots, self-built housing and frequent architectural stereotypes so we opted for neutrality in design.
