Jojutla in the Mexican state of Morelos is the location of this community center envisioned as part of the plan to restructure the municipality’s main public buildings, damaged by an earthquake that shook the area on 19 September 2017.
The original structure was mostly destroyed, and the firms Agenda (Colombia) and Dellekamp Schleich (Mexico) came up with a design based on a construction system formed by a grid of rigid frames of concrete, enabling a composition of open and closed spaces to shape workshops, the library, and municipal offices. The volume delimits a landscaped plaza that complements the center.
