The design made by Estudio MMX enriches the wide-open spaces with generous views. While the closed spaces are characterized by their intimate and welcoming character, where the change in heights and scales generates a diversity of environments.
The garden of the house is a compositional element that is directly interwoven with the project of the house since, through the use of platforms at different heights and levels, the public spaces of the house are organized, promoting a direct relationship with the outside.

Description of project by Estudio MMX
This project, located west of Mexico City, experiments with the diversity of environments experienced when walking through it. For its design we considered wide open spaces to complement the distant views and interlock with the closed and intimate spaces, in sequence, designed to enjoy the change of scales, heights, and chiaroscuros of the site and the house.
The generosity and dignity of architecture and landscape are fundamental components to achieve the intimate and specific program that a single-family home requires. In this project there are spaces in which unexpected and surprising things are experienced at every moment, making architecture the framework of the daily history that will be written by its inhabitants.
One of the main goals was shaping a continuous garden for which platforms at different levels were created which determined the organization of the house public spaces favoring the connection between the exterior. The public program is covered by 2 platforms that form large terraces on the upper levels remaining in close contact with the suspended gardens on these platforms.
