Mexico-based studio Parque Humano has designed the Casa en el Bosque (House in the Woods) project. The house is located in Valle de Bravo, Estado de Mexico, Mexico.
The weather and climatic conditions in this area are very complex. Its main feature is maximal integration with the surrounding nature and the area in which it is situated. The concept was to create the house the interior and exterior design of which would organically mix with the forest showing the respect to the nature and support the connection between it and the human. The house consists of living room, dining room, kitchen, multipurpose room, and 2 bedrooms. The material used in the exterior are specially made tile and glass limiting the boundaries between in and out, while the interior is finished with wood and plaster. Each pavilion was carefully placed on the site, incorporating all the existing trees into the program and facing the most important views. The house is deeply rooted in the existing landscape. Well done!
