Architectural project: Rozana Montiel Estudio de Arquitectura + Alin V. Wallach Collaborators: Ombeline de Laage. Alejandro Aparicio Location: Temixco, Morelos, México Client: Infonavit Photography: Sandra Pereznieto, Jaime Navarro Year: 2017
We designed a housetop room prototype which could be affordably added to the family units of a housing complex in the warm region of Morelos, Mexico. Our project forwarded a a modular, sustainable construction system based on BIOPANEL materials: the inside being of prefabricated bamboo panels, and the outside, of recycled polyaluminum panels.
In addition to being installed in a very short time, it was low cost and lightweight.
