After the Bayon Artell project that we have featured before, the DCPP Arquitectos completed a private residence in México City. It was a big task for them since they faced a lot of restrictions to the sides and at the front of the 400m2 site. But, they used those restrictions to give shape to the house always searching for the maximum amount of open areas and good orientation.
The whole house consists of two concrete volumes, which intersect each other. The first volume which contains of a big, structural, concrete arch consists the main open area with an open terrace, with the roof passing at 7.5 on one side. The other side holds the library.
This private residential project can be categorized as eco friendly house, since the materials used during the process were recycled into another form. Like the the wood used to pour the concrete was used again in some of the woodwork inside the house, such as the doors. Via
I really like this option!! I’m in the middle of a school project, and It would be very useful if you could provide me the basic blueprints of this design. This work will be developed under an

Thanks for your time
