The house is located in the small town of San José de Gracia, Michoacán de Ocampo, in the center of the country. The project seeks as its main objectives to be economically and environmentally feasible, to blend into the landscape, and to design simple and private spaces with natural ventilation and illumination. The simple and sustainable structure works to generate large clearings inside the house, having as a base a series of pine wood beams and, on top of them, handmade 12x6x4cm mud bricks that receive the concrete slab. This system exposes both the natural mud and the wood beams, without the need to cover the material. The concrete walls are combined with rammed earth walls; in this way form and function go beyond the structure, providing thermal and acoustic insulation while establishing a dialogue with the black volcanic stone pavement, the metal frames, and the timber and polished cement furniture. The palette achieved, monochromatic with subtle accents, shows great honesty in the materials.

The program invites to the contemplation of every corner: courtyard, garage, laundry room, half bathroom, living room and kitchen, transition patio, master bedroom, full bathroom. At the entrance, a staircase leads to the terrace.
