– Jean Nouvel
In the last decades there has been a degeneration of the “Action Office”, a model generated in the 60‘s by Rob-ert Propst, resulting on a series of homogeneous, universal, anonymous and repetitive spaces, which form a deficient spatial response for today’s working space needs.

GL31 Residential Building
Design: Pascal Arquitectos
GL31 Residential Building
GL31 turned to be even more complex because of the irregular shape of the plot, the entrance is in one street and the exit in a different one with two pedestrian entrances, and to all this we have to add the amount of interior spaces left because there is no access to the street, which makes it a architectural commercial and functional challenge. Finally these interior apartments ended up being the best ones because they are far away from the noise of the street, with an enriching social environment.

La Peninsula Marina Vallarta
The guidelines upon which this project was developed are based in two concepts: one that allows a maximum exploitation of possibilities without falling on a typical saturated low range residence, and a second one, very important too, to obtain an acceptable investment return estimate.

Sunset Chapel, Acapulco
Design: Bunker Arquitectura
Sunset Chapel
Two elements obstructed the principal views for this radical Mexican building: large trees and abundant vegetation, and a behemoth of a boulder blocking the main sight of the sunset. In order to clear these obstructions (blowing up the gigantic rock was out of the question for ethical, spiritual, environmental and economic reasons) the level of the chapel had to be raised at least five meters.
