Casa Estudio F36 / Estudio Tecalli

closed

Text description provided by the architects.Located in San Cristóbal Tepontla, a locality adjacent to San Pedro Cholula in the Puebla valley, Mexico, this project represents the second intervention by the office in a territory profoundly defined by its productive identity. The area, recognized as one of the most important brick production centers in the region, sketches a unique urban landscape, marked by traditional kilns and extensive clay drying areas. The immediate context debates between two opposing realities: the imposing natural presence of Cerro Zapotecas - a landmark for local hiking and cycling - and the accelerated growth of the Zerezotla area, driven by real estate speculation.
