EA64 House

Designed by Taller Estilo Arquitectura, the beautiful EA64 House is a living space located in Mexico, in Merida´s historic center that seeks a dialogue between colonial and contemporary architecture. The unique home seeks to reinterpret the downtown outdoor lifestyle hence the importance of the backyard, its balconies and terraces. Given its antiquity, several spaces were modified to achieve a better functioning suited to the present time, always respecting its historical character. Stucco walls, mostly in a neutral color, create a perfect canvas for artwork and recycled pieces, cement floors give each area character either in a traditional mosaic form or in big surfaces, natural or colored wood give warmth and functionality for the furniture and, aluminum and glass allow to create a close relationship interior-exterior. Illumination, airflow and nature make this living space a place to enjoy.
