Cotos de Monterrey 1

Industrialized home designed by EXarchitects for Ecotech House

  Set on a steeply sloped plot with spectacular views of the Sierra de Madrid, this home is designed to adapt to the terrain—resting on the slope—and to use the views as the leitmotif for the programmatic layout. The result is a highly functional residence with a carefully thought-out aesthetic, fully integrated into its natural surroundings. The layout features a ground floor with the main daytime living areas and an adult zone that includes a suite with walk-in closet and full bathroom. The lower floor (-1) functions as a private “apartment” or exclusive space for the younger members of the household. To make the most of the partially buried lower level, a patio was included to bring in natural light and also serve as a transitional space that articulates the main entrance. A dual material strategy combines prefabricated concrete panels with natural stone, adding material warmth and balance to the design. Project visualizations: Project plans:
