FMT Estudio has revamped a historical house in Mérida, Mexico, respecting the neighborhood’s original architectural character. Completed in 2023, the Dolores project involved reconfiguring the property, adding contemporary elements to the original early 20th-century structure. Light volumes were added for contrast, along with wooden and marble details on windows and doors. The team aimed to preserve the neighborhood’s identity while incorporating modern updates to inspire other local developments.

Located in Mérida, Mexico, FMT Estudio redesigned Casa Chuburná, a country house first built in the first half of the 20th century. The project focused on renovating the abandoned structure, enhancing lighting and ventilation by adding larger windows, and retaining historic elements. New areas were added with distinct textures and colours, blending the old and new. The result is a spacious home with garden views from every room, offering a retreat from the city’s fast pace.
