At first, it looks simple. But everything here is made from the same concrete block.
The Capuchinas House, in Mexico, takes one material and turns it into structure, facade, and light filter.
The walls don’t just divide space. They control light, air, and privacy.
Inside, the house is organized in a clear sequence, moving from open social spaces to more protected private areas.
Courtyards appear along the way, bringing light and ventilation into the interior.
Nothing is hidden.
Everything works together.
A simple idea, taken to the limit.
