Casa La Paz / Ludwig Godefroy Architecture

Paula Pintos — Sat, 17 May 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The Casa La Paz project proposes to invert the traditional house model, flipping its common scheme of a house with a garden in order to create a garden with its house. By making the external element an integral part of the living space, the house and its garden cease to be two distinct entities and merge into a single, unified element. The fusion of interior and exterior generates a sense of expansiveness in the habitable space of the house.

La Arbolada House / Indiana Sarubi Arquitecta

Valeria Silva — Sat, 20 Aug 2022 13:00:00 +0000

On the first visit to the land, with the first look, the design premise of this new project was clear. Nature in its best expression and respect for it. On the adjoining land, a gallery forest, a protected area, maintained the essence of the place. How to ignore all the strength and energy that was lived there? The leading role here is shared, nature itself and the work built and designed from it. There is no attempt to stand out, but rather to coexist, always remembering the value of each part, in constant contemplation and gaze towards the remaining trees.

La Paz is a city of mountains, the city in the mountains. Along the Choqueyapu river (from north to south and downhill) the city climbs the hillsides and takes over the valleys. One of these valleys is Achumani, a middle-class neighborhood in which the densification process replaces single-family houses for multifamily apartment buildings.

Portable Cholets

As you walk in the streets of La Paz, you immediately understand that there is a mystic feeling in paceños. There is a practical and a sacred sense in all the things they do: the most ordinary routines can be naturally transformed into unique spiritual happenings. The VS El Alto will persist on questioning notions of identity, folklore and contemporary rituals translated into architecture.
