TREES GROW THROUGH THE FLOORS OF JOULIO HOUSE BY ROOF ARQUITECTOS

 A forest of sweet gum trees grows through opening in the concrete slabs of this house in MORELIA MEXICO  by roof arquitectos, providing an alternative to central courtyard.
Roof Arquitectos  cofounders Rogelio vallejo & Francisco Noriega designed the house for a plot opposite a park for client joulio Hernandez & his son.

 The architects wanted to base the design of Joulio Hernandez house on another residence in the city, which they arranged around a courtyard containing a cluster of oak trees.
When we started developing this house we wanted to explore the architectonic & sensorial possiblities offered by a patio, containing small, nastled forests  almost in the same way we did it in out last project said Vallejo & Noriega.
