In what used to be the "Builder's Yard" of El Sitio and most recently a parking lot, stands Situations of Being; a pavilion that facilitated creative exchanges and social dynamics during A Timeless Way of Building, an event curated by INSITE in which architects, philosophers, and urbanists from the region and beyond participated in conversations, in light of Alexander's theories, about housing production, communal living, architectural philosophy, and urgent urbanism in border cities.

What governs the organization of its spaces and circulation is the proximity to the perimeter garden, allowing for contemplation from all interior spaces. The curves applied at the intersection and corners of four volumes guide a passage that leads to spaces surrounded by vegetation and natural light.
