Explore the stunning red brick Terreno House, located on the foot of a mountain three hours from Mexico City. Designed by Canales for her family, the house embraces and incorporates the excess and damaged building materials into the design, and creates shelter from the radical weather while allowing in as much light and views into the stunning natural surroundings.
Wander through the stark and modular Bruma House; a series of inter-connected buildings designed in sync with the existing trees and the passage of morning and evening light, structured around a large patio. As unique as it is functional.
Then venture into the Monte Alban neighbourhood in Mexico City; 21 apartments developed as a reinterpretation of the neighbourhood model, with an iconic serrated roof design that introduces natural light to the homes on the upper level and provides greater continuity to the neighbourhood as a whole.
