This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
Situated in Guadalajara, Mexico, SPRB arquitectos completed Acolhúas House in 2016. Standout features include the sun-drenched central courtyard, thoughtful variations of scale and vaulted brick ceilings.
The building follows the tenet of truth to materials, embracing the traces of timber shuttering on the façade.
