Text description provided by the architects. The Project lies in a very dry area in the city of Cuernavaca, Morelos in Mexico. The city was nicknamed the "City of Eternal Spring" by Alexander von Humboldt in the 19th century. One our away from México City, the most important summer states for the Aztecs and in present times as well for the inhabitant of Mexico City’s. The name "Cuernavaca" is derived from the Nahuatl phrase Cuauhnahuac, and means "surrounded by or close to trees." The name was eventually Hispanicized to Cuernavaca because the Spanish could not pronounce the Nahuatl name.
