As part of our ongoing effort to highlight the outstanding academic work being produced in universities, we launched an open call last January, inviting Mexican architects to share their graduation projects. We sought theses and academic research addressing critical issues in the Mexican context—projects that typically remain on paper but deserve national recognition.
Following an exhaustive evaluation, six thesis projects were selected as winners by our editorial jury (Fabián Dejtiar, Mónica Arellano y Santiago Baraya). Out of 46 submissions from 15 cities and 23 architecture schools across Mexico, our editorial team conducted an extensive review to select the six best projects designed by Mexican students, outstanding for their formal resolution, the clarity of their architectural discourse, and their understanding of context and users.
Spanning themes such as the architectural regeneration of abandoned infrastructure to provide new services, urban interventions on the outskirts of Mexico City, flexible rural housing, and rethinking the public spaces that borders can offer, we present the 10 most outstanding graduation projects.
