“The house was built with maximum regard for the environment and by reciprocation gives us a unique opportunity to live close to nature.”
This building is one part of a low-impact or permaculture approach to life. This sort of life is about living in harmony with both the natural world and ourselves, doing things simply and using appropriate levels of technology.
A young family with two children from Mexico City were tired living in a conventional home and wanted to change to one integrated to nature. The goal of this project was to make it feel like an internal inhabitant of a snail, like a symbiotic dweller of a huge fossil maternal cloister.
