House in Mexico

This private home was realised in Puebla, Mexico, by M+N Arquitectos. Two different materials, were used as an outer shell for the building. Concrete covers the residential areas of the house, directed to the south, while a brick shell covers the work areas, facing north.

The proposal began with a generally undefined idea which allowed for the possibility of change and the introduction of new ideas along the way in relation to the spatial and architectural plans in general. This lead to the creation of a two-stage plan: one for living and one for work.

The intention of this project was to make an architectural plan differentiating various spaces by the use of unique construction materials including a glass bridge dividing the workshop from the living area.
