Designed by Arqxioma, it is the house of a research doctor at the local university and her family, who wanted to experience and maintain maximum privacy. Despite the tight facade and the size of the land, there is no deficiency in lighting and ventilation. In addition there is a feeling of spaciousness, with a very comfortable sensation despite its scale.
The floor is covered with traditional handmade tiles, characteristic of the city of Guadalajara, made out of cement and pigments. The solution responds to the proportion of each space to align the patterns as they seem blurring from the living room to the service yard. The house colors are based on the tones of orange, green, white and gray, that represents freshness, joy and peace according to color psychology.
