The plan of this garden is seen on the preceding page and it is certainly architectural. The whole theme revolves around the central pool and the changes in level are cleverly handled to provide a progression through the space.
Located in a leafy suburb in Xalapa, a city in east-central Mexico, this family house by Mexico City-based architects @lopezgonzalezmx stands out amid the lush vegetation in its stark form and charcoal hue. Astutely modern in design, conceived as a monolithic cubic volume punctured by an irregular composition of red-framed windows, the house nevertheless harmoniously integrates into its natural setting, courtesy of its rock-like dark exterior and jagged roof line. Inside, a minimalist aesthetic and muted colour palette allows the verdant views to take centre stage while a spacious courtyard and scenic roof terrace further enhance the property’s connection with nature.
