At the beginning of the pilgrimage route to the Virgin of Talpa the road leads up the hill Cerro del Obispo and from there, contrasting against the sky, we can see the chapel Capilla de la Gratitud.

Mazatlán, Sinaloa, México

13,000 m²

Project: 2017 – 2019

Construction: 2019 – On going

This project presented a high level of complexity: the family house was to be located on a site that is over two and a half acres of rough terrain with large topographical variations. This suburban site is very steep but with a beautiful panoramic view of downtown Monterrey. The client wanted us to design a single story house with a radical division between public and private spaces which would also be energy efficient.
