Climb the spiral staircase into the elevated Nidos House, woven with a beautiful and seamless harmony into the ecological reserve El Peñón. Subtly resting above the earth on a series of load-bearing walls, the house imitates a classic bird’s nest, suspended in the treetops, while causing as little disturbance to the natural surroundings as possible.
Then, head next-door to Encinos House, a playful, bright space in the middle of the forest. Designed and built with many small open spaces, working around the huge existing oak trees; creating a stunning and harmonious outdoor living space that embraces the natural habitat.
Finally, return from the forest to Mexico City, and explore the calm and soft Pilares, a social impact urban project. Featuring a cyberschool, arts & crafts workshops, sports facilities, an orchard and classrooms for entrepreneurship & job training lessons, Pilares is designed as a public, inclusive and multifunctional space.
