Herradura Cabin / ALMA de Arquitectos

Valentina Díaz — Fri, 05 Jun 2026 15:00:00 +0000

The design of the Herradura Cabin in the Primavera Forest stems from a fundamental premise: architecture must adapt to its environment, and not the other way around. The horseshoe-shaped configuration is the direct result of respecting the location of the existing trees, allowing the construction to settle within the clearings of the site without disturbing the original vegetation.

Bosques Vallarta House / Díaz Webster Arquitectura

Valentina Díaz — Sun, 10 May 2026 15:00:00 +0000

Located in a residential development in western Zapopan, Casa Bosques Vallarta emerges as an exercise in synthesis and functionality, where volumetric sobriety and a connection to the outdoors guide the design.

CASA DLCA / 0studio Arquitectura

Andreas Luco — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 02:00:00 +0000

DLCA HOUSE reflects the principles of contemporary Mexican architecture through a deliberate balance of material contrasts, spatial clarity, and contextual awareness. Spanning 496 m² across three levels, the residence is oriented north-south to optimize climatic conditions, establishing a straightforward and functional architectural language. The exterior is defined by a concrete monolith, whose stark presence is softened by warm wood cladding on the ground floor. This material contrast creates a layered composition that distinguishes programmatic elements while highlighting the orthogonal design, where vertical and horizontal planes are carefully articulated in both the façade and interior spaces.

Valentina Díaz — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 15:00:00 +0000

Designing a residence in the heart of one of the busiest neighborhoods in the Metropolitan Zone of Guadalajara was quite a challenge, especially considering the proximity of the condominium's clubhouse and the entrance booth. The family sought an intimate and private home, and this is how we achieved Casa EV, a unique and cozy space.

Writer's House / em-estudio

Valentina Díaz — Tue, 02 Dec 2025 07:00:00 +0000

The House of a Writer is born from a central courtyard that articulates and gives meaning to all the spaces around it. The project embraces the traditional concept of the house with a courtyard, where a bookshelf —the protagonist in the double-height of the central space— becomes the axis that connects the various activities of the home centered around writing.

Perpetual Chapel / Fino Lozano

Pilar Caballero — Sat, 15 Jun 2024 15:00:00 +0000

North of the Guadalajara metropolis in the Nuevo Vergel neighborhood, the Perpetual Chapel, built with the hands of the same residents of the settlement, recalls the words of the Burkinabe architect Francis Kéré -Pritzker 2022-: "Everyone deserves quality, everyone deserves luxury and everyone deserves consolation.”

House PF / AE Arquitectos

Valeria Silva — Tue, 06 Jun 2023 14:00:00 +0000

The house was designed for a family that wanted privacy and to be isolated from the outside noise. We generated simple volumes to let spatiality be the main protagonist in this project. Therefore, the facades became very silent to the road, framing perfectly the tree and garden at the house entrance.

E16 Apartment / SB Atelier

Valeria Silva — Sat, 11 Jun 2022 02:00:00 +0000

The main idea of the intervention begins from the client's intention to generate meeting areas that allow continuous interaction within 70m2. Therefore, the purpose was to create an intimate and welcoming space, preserving the existing structure and configuration, but multiplying the space possibilities to generate greater amplitude and natural lighting.

Pinar House / V Taller

Andreas Luco — Fri, 13 May 2022 03:00:00 +0000

Casa Pinar is a project located on the outskirts of the city, nestled in a forest, and -like most of our projects- is an immediate consequence of its own context. The design principles were dictated by the location from the first visit to the site: Not to remove a single tree and to intertwist the house with the surroundings. The forest along with the topography results in a house that uses the service spaces as stone foundations for then detach itself and accommodate the family life on just one level.

House Cañadas / RE+D

Clara Ott — Mon, 18 Oct 2021 05:00:00 +0000

Located on rugged terrain, Casa Cañadas is developed from the premise of being part of the topography and respecting the existing trees, leaving the construction in the background, and thus giving an honest answer to the area of application.

La Tequila Restaurant / LOA

Pilar Caballero — Sat, 14 Aug 2021 14:00:00 +0000

The restaurant is located within a shopping and financial district in Zapopan, Jalisco, near the city of Guadalajara, Mexico. The objective of the project was to implement the aesthetic and architectural identity of a business with almost 3 decades of history and a rooted culture of artisanal products and processes. Throughout the last 26 years, La Tequila has made itself a reputation as the city’s premier destination for Mexican cuisine and, as such, it has built a strong sense of identity that we were tasked with preserving.

Jacarandas House / C3 Arquitectos

Andreas Luco — Fri, 23 Apr 2021 10:00:00 +0000

The client, a family of three, a mother and two adult children, who were looking for a house that offered both coexistence and independence. The property is located in the municipality of Zapopan, Jalisco, in an upper-class neighborhood with lots of 500 m² (14 m x 35 m approx.) In a context of single-family houses attached on the sides one after another. The architectural conception of the project starts from thinking about the void before what is built. To build with air. This is the origin of the great road that runs longitudinally through the lot, separating the house from the neighboring construction, and making the project more like a corner house and not between party walls.

Duraznos House / V Taller

Valeria Silva — Wed, 17 Mar 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Casa Duraznos is the natural result of a series of casual and organic connections. For starters, and considering that the project is placed in an urban area, the terrain had a very unique shape that allowed us to think and visualize a project without an entrance façade. Thus, the entrance was transformed into a promenade experience that degrades the city noise into the quietness of a home, a phenomenological event in which the first contact that the users have with the house is through walls that guide and surround them so they can later be surprised with a garden.

Par House / COA Arquitectura

Pilar Caballero — Thu, 31 Dec 2020 11:00:00 +0000

Anteus Constructora Headquarters / Ricardo Yslas Gámez Arquitectos

Andreas Luco — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 16:00:00 +0000

Located to the outskirts of Zapopan, Mexico, this project consists of the headquarters for Anteus Constructora (an iconic local construction company), which form part of the company’s prefabrication plant. The 1,882-square-meter building is developed within a six hectares plot, including parking spaces and outside walkers. Our initial approach was to create a workspace that represented the quality and technology of the company, so we integrated in-house construction systems and materials, such as: post-enslated slabs, pre-tightened slabs, self-compacting concrete, tilt-up walls and pre-cast lattices, complemented with an adequate use of concrete details and finishes.

Nursery Capire / RE+D

Valeria Silva — Thu, 14 May 2020 13:00:00 +0000

The starting point from which the design of the nursery was born, was the idea of making an analogy of the growth of a child. Like a child, who is growing through experiences, the nursery’s activities are developed through a ramp that communicates the different levels of the project: on the ground floor there are areas for infants, who are the youngest and, as the ramp grows in height, the educational grades also grow, passing through maternal and pre-kindergarten to finally reach the last level, where the roof garden and playground are located.
