Casa Calero

Located on the slopes of the Tepozteco range of hills, this house explores the relationship between interior and exterior through the design of a walkway as part of a flexible program. Representing 30% of the built area, this arcade not only connects each interior space but is also adaptable as an extension of each of the modules containing the program for the house’s interior. While the roof ridge maintains the same level throughout the project, the floor level adapts to the site’s uneven terrain, raising the public parts of the program while creating a suitably cozy atmosphere for the two bedrooms. The polished stucco and clay floor tiles seek to blend the project into the landscape and surrounding vegetation.
