This compact studio for an architect accompanies the adjoining residence and bathhouse to complete the ensemble of structures in the net-zero retreat. Located just outside Mexico City, the retreat offers a new model for utilizing and conserving water in a region where water is an increasingly precious resource.
The double-height studio space is illuminated by a single large north-facing window that frames a view of Volcan Toluca Mountain to the north. An outdoor skyspace is situated above the breezeway entry.
