About GDL 3 House

The design of GDL 3 House located in Zapopan, Mexico, became a challenge due to the many restriction zones into the plot which led us to consider a house with a narrow front, developing the architectural program in a longitudinal direction from the front side to the rear side of the plot. At the same time, we took advantage of the restrictions zones to allow natural lighting and ventilation into the rooms.

The program composed by three floors and one underground garage place the bedrooms and bathrooms in the intermediate floor, and the social areas in the lower and upper floors. The materials palette was chosen to create sober, elegant, and contemporary environments.
