Casa Bosques

Casa Bosques is located in a privileged area in the west of Mexico City, where luxury single-family residences abound, within the Bosques de las Lomas neighborhood.
This residence is home to a family of 7 members, made up of parents and children of various ages, as well as permanent service personnel who are part of their daily lives. For this reason it was important for the house to be able to grow and mature along with them, adapting to each stage to come.
This is a remodeling and expansion project of a two-story house with a basement, a large garden and different accesses that respect the privacy of the family and the spaces.
For the family, the adaptation of these spaces represented union, coexistence, work, family life and the guarantee of creating new memories in spaces capable of evolving along with them.
On the first floor, a second access is created that guides you in a natural way to the semi-private area of offices tucked on the main façade, in order to receive their clients in a delimited section of their home.
It is here where the part of the architectural program oriented to the enjoyment of activities that promote the union and the ability to share among family members in their daily lives is developed, linking the kitchen, living room, dining room and patio spaces creating an interconnection between spaces and activities. 
Upstairs are the bedrooms, where each member of the family sought to preserve their individuality through the design; on the one hand, having some of the older children sharing a bedroom with the younger ones, it was important to provide each one with flexible and functional spaces for their daily activities.
The family's desire for the house to grow along with each member, as well as future members, is reflected in the intention to preserve a bathtub that is currently in disuse, with the idea that in the future it will be a place of connection between babies and grandparents at bath time, since every space in the house yearns for timelessness.
