Rojas

A compact weekend house - cost-sensitive, without compromising material honesty or comfort.

Adobe blocks produced on site; repurposed timber frames the attic; laterite handles wet areas. Passive cooling and permeability over mechanical systems.

Block manufacture and assembly were executed with artisans, students and the clients themselves - participatory yet technically controlled.
