Casa Candelaria is a home fused to a semi-desert natural environment in the Bajío region, respect for the vegetation and its coexistence was the first axis of action, preserving the existing trees in their entirety to let the construction flow naturally as if a pluvial stream was involved. A simple and regular volumetry dominates the formal concept of the project, the repetition of circular shapes around the different spaces maintains a uniform language evident on some occasions and on other occasions imperceptible and more sensory.
