The Modern Contemporary Casa LC in Mexico City

ARCO Arquitectura Contemporánea did a great job in designing and constructing Casa LC. This 705 square meter residence is located in Mexico City wherein construction started 2010 and was completed in 2011. The site is situated inside an exclusive residential development that has an excellent golf course and is lucky to actually be surrounded by a lovely landscape. This entire home was actually a remodelling project for our design team. They even say that this was a great challenge for them because of integration of the indoors and the outdoors to be able to create a child-friendly environment for the growing family of the client.

The interior of the Casa LC was widened because of the height of the space which definitely gives everyone a feel of a larger space even when the house is not that wide. The grand windows in the entire house gives not only proper ventilation but also gives the homeowners excellent view of their outdoors. As a special case, the stairway was the border line between the public and the private space in the hosue. Materials used for the house were marble, wood, glass and some metallic elements as well. These materials allowed the designers to incorporate the indoors and the outdoors. Let us now start to take a look at the spaces we have been describing, for you to be able to admire the house like the homeowners did.

We were only able to show one picture of the living area but if you can take one more look on it, you will be able to see that it is connected to the dining area. The living-dining area is the most attractive space in the house. With the huge windows in the living area, we are able to see the great view of the back garden and the lake. With the high ceiling treatment that is also in the living area, we are able to feel that the space is quite large. The right selection of the wall colors, materials, and draperies, plus the great lighting design contributes to the contemporary modern feel of the house which is achieved with no question.
