• About Firm
  The studio sees architecture as a dialogue with its surroundings, creating projects that connect site conditions with social and cultural needs. Its adaptive approach integrates human, ecological, and urban aspects. Exploring fluid geometries, it blurs boundaries between interior and exterior, rethinking how people interact with space. Combining digital tools and craftsmanship, the firm delivers precise, sustainable designs that evolve with their environment.

Located in Guadalajara, Memorial Andares offers a reflective space within a dynamic urban environment. Inspired by the Möbius strip, its fluid design evokes continuity between life and eternity, promoting introspection. Using white concrete, wood, and glass, it balances monumentality and warmth. Across three levels, the ground floor has a lobby and reflecting pool; the first, sanctuary and cremation area; the second, a restaurant, private suites, and business center. Memorial Andares honors loved ones while uniting spirituality, landscape, and contemporary design.
