Thanks to the semi-desert climate of the state of Querétaro we were able to use local materials and traditional construction methods to achieve the micro-climatic conditions that —together with a modern aesthetic and notion of the current space— resulted in a place where elements bring together an enviable atmosphere. Juan Carlos Loyo Arquitectura is concerned about the environment and always makes sure their projects contain native materials as feedstock, on this occasion constructing an extraordinary house that connects perfectly with the climate and environment of the site.
Vernacular architecture is the primary driver for Juan Carlos Loyo Arquitectura, using the dimensions to propose the correct use of sunlight, rain and wind, this wonderful project was achieved without the use of electric power, which generated —literally— a naturally pleasant environment.
The principles for building this house come from the respect of the environment and the study of vernacular architecture.
