this is what Marc Augé calls a non place…it doestn makes you feel in the place you should be contextually sepaking, this house could be in any place of the world or any magazine and you may say to yourself: ¨nice¨ canadian or japanease or uk or anywhere house…pffff

It’s all good, I believe some comments are biased because where it is located but it’s a good project, if it meets clients requirements then it gets built, in Mexico, there is no second guessing the budget, never, you get your lines drawn and until the client says go, you build, never before, excess or not.

I live near by, and i was disapointed to find a strage tile made structure in de garden, this was done because there are residential restrictions that force architects to use tiled roofs. I would have hoped the architects to have comed with a better solution to this. The house is very interesting, and i like it, but i believe that the materials chosen to build it are not the best. i’ve seen the house and it’s walls look somewhat damaged by the weather…

I find this house quite brutal in parts. It’s not particularly inviting or welcoming internally and 6/7 bathrooms is a bit excessive!

Regarding the glass runway… we better be careful with what we’re wearing ! Ladies, be aware !

Indeed, the glass runway is excessive, and I would also question the variety of interior materials and their transitions, like the ceramic tiles on the step of the living room. I don’t understand how the maid’s room works: it’s a room for two people, without a wardrobe and with a window facing the garage? where do these two people bathe? Yet, I’m much more scared of the sharp edges of the metallic open stairs, in spite of their beauty. I hope there aren’t really any little kids in the house! Overall, it has a nice concept, as well as does the other projects that the practice displays in its website.

another great example of simple, white architecture. Two cubes in contrast and the in-between space serving as an entrance. Nice consept…yes, i agree about the bridge, too much for a simple house and scary to walk on!!
