Chacakul House / 0studio Arquitectura

May 1, 2023 Pilar Caballero 0

Casa Chacakul is located on a unique site on the coast of Nayarit, Mexico. Its design was conceived under a simple and elegant linear plan. With two solid forms connected by a bridge that acts by itself as a link between both volumes with the help of a brick lattice. The client’s request for a specific program helped us divide the public areas between the ground level and the private areas on the second level.

KAARYASHALA Office / AANGAN Architects

May 1, 2023 Hana Abdel 0

KAARYASHALA is an architecture firm’s workspace, the idea behind which germinated from the aspiration to bring a combination of a homely feeling as well as a studio-oriented environment. The vision behind the design and making of the new workspace was to bring the ideology of sustainable design practice and the two-decade-long journey in the form of a physical manifestation. It was envisioned to have a soulful process from the selection of site and context, space organization, construction material and methodology, and artwork. The design is not about attractive aesthetics, sophisticated furniture, or technical lighting, it’s about the idea of moving into a village, about making people believe in the idea of recycling and upcycling; not only material but space and context. In a world governed by ‘, what meets the eyes’, this is our place that ‘touches the heart’, a feeling that can only be experienced by being in the place.
