X16 Studio by CampoTaller

The X16 Studio is an exercise of recovery and partial intervention in a modernist house of the 50s. A rehearsal room whose approach interferes only what is strictly necessary for the appropriate functioning of the house in coexistence with the new studio and its spectacular garden.

Architect: CampoTaller
Location: México city , Mexico
Year: 2019
Project size: 75 sq.m.
Site size: 650 sq.m.
Photography: Moritz Bernoully

From the architect: The main goal was to resolve a space with private vocation, while willing to be public sometimes. Through a series of punctual actions around the project, articulation issues were solved between the intervened and the preexisting areas.

Actions: Reformulating circulations around the studio through sliding boards that enlarge and shrink the space; epoxy resin and volcanic rock floors, windows, closure and opening of bays. Suitable lighting for the execution of activities, extension of the total height, furniture design, a new warehouse.

The purpose of the proposal is to cause a dialogue between the intervention and the existing parts, a contrast that allows the user to distinguish two stories around the building.
