Casa Huizache,
The main masses are distributed around a courtyard, creating a moderately open construction towards the interior and a closed one towards the outside. The courtyard contains a Huizache tree, surrounded by a water mirror that refreshes and serves as a central feature.
The house comprises three main volumes, each oriented at a different angle to highlight distinct views in each area. The patio is the primary circulation strategy, providing a refuge from the wind, a connection to the sky, and a night-sky observatory. We aim to establish a deep relationship with the site by incorporating the patio’s open space.
