Antonio Farré Arquitecto

01 — Manifesto

Some houses are lived in. Others are felt before you cross the threshold.

Since 1990, Antonio Farré has built more than two hundred houses in Mexico. Timeless, balanced and sophisticated architecture: local materials, open column-free spaces and windows that make the landscape and the light part of every room.

04 — Principles

Materials of the place

Stone, wood and exposed concrete, used in original and timeless ways so the house belongs to its landscape.

No columns

Wide spans, double heights and cantilevers. Space runs from one end to the other without interruption.

Light as a material

Skylights, lattices and floor-to-ceiling windows. Light draws the space at every hour of the day.

Your house begins with a conversation.
