The project is located on the outskirts of the northern city of Monterrey, Mexico. Surrounded by the majestic Sierra Madre Oriental mountain range, High Park is designed to take full advantage of its geographical location and to help mitigate extreme climatic conditions.
As a recurring concern for the design of Rojkind Arquitectos and as a way to integrate the building in the pedestrian area (handing it back to the community) the building back to create a shaded space, which can be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.
“Normally this type of construction does not allow the creation of any public space around the site is developed with the intention of maximizing the area occupied by commercial interest. This project has a different approach allow your site is not built entirely and thus provide a public space that can be used by anyone “Gerardo Salinas, partner, Rojkind Arquitectos.
To counter the strong sun, plants are changing in relation to the other creating a play of light and shadows, And use of local stone in the facade, made by local artisans, allows the building stay cooler and produces a change in appearance according to the movement of the sun on the horizon.
The project offers outdoor terraces to each apartment due to the strict constraints of the site, taking advantage of the views of the surrounding mountains.
“People enjoy the comfort of home for connection to a garden or outdoor spaces that usually lack the apartments. When you have a project that integrates not only terraces but royal gardens even at higher levels, We have a unique experience to Monterrey. “Michel Rojkind, founding partner.
