Casa Lú
Merida, Mexico
A family home transformed into a sanctuary—a house for living.
The project is based on a 1960s house, evolving into a home for contemporary life, a calm space for relaxation and enjoyment. The process began by clearing the pre-existing architectural program, eliminating unused spaces (a storage room, an intermediate room, and the entrance porch). Two interior courtyards were created to improve natural lighting and ventilation throughout the house.
The master bedroom was expanded to accommodate a home-office space. To the north, a terrace was designed to serve as a transition between interior and exterior spaces, integrating the living-dining area and the master bedroom with the pool and gardens. A mixed-structure roof was added to the terrace to cover the space and provide semi-shaded surfaces over the pool. Planters (vegetation containments) were also added to the exterior areas.
Regarding the architectural program, a new bathroom was created for guests and visitors. Additionally, a new volume was added along the street front to house the garage, laundry area, and storage rooms. An access sequence was established, consisting of an exterior and an interior foyer interconnected by a dry courtyard. The material palette is sober, contrasting stone elements with neutral-toned textures.
Una casa familiar que se transforma en un refugio, para un habitante, una casa para vivir.
El proyecto toma como base una casa de la década de los sesenta, evolucionando en una casa para la vida actual, un espacio calmo de relajación y disfrute. Se comenzó limpiando el programa arquitectónico pre-existente; eliminando los espacios que no serían utilizados (bodega, una habitación intermedia y pórtico de acceso). Se generan dos patios interiores para iluminar y ventilar mejor la casa.
La habitación principal crece en tamaño para albergar un espacio de home-office. Hacia el norte se crea una terraza que sirve de transición entre el espacio interior y exterior, integrando sala-comedor y habitación principal con la piscina y los jardines. Se genera una cubierta mixta en la terraza para techar el espacio y generar superficies semi sombreadas en la alberca. Se agregan contenciones de vegetación en los espacios exteriores.
En cuanto a programa arquitectónico se genera un baño nuevo, para la habitación de invitados y visitas. De igual manera se agrega un volumen en contacto con la vialidad para albergar la cochera, área de lavado y bodegas. Se genera una secuencia de acceso; un vestíbulo exterior y un vestíbulo interior interconectados por un patio seco. La paleta de materiales se torna sobria, contrastando elementos pétreos con texturas de colores neutros.
