Mexico City, Mexico

In San Miguel Chapultepec, Mexico City, Rebollar 86 responds to the historical and urban context of the neighborhood, defined by its tree-lined streets and proximity to Chapultepec Forest. To balance housing density and the integration of green areas, the design complies with the H/3/30/B zoning regulations and centers sustainability as a key element. The project is inspired by homes with interior courtyards, reinterpreted in a contemporary context to create a dialogue between interior and exterior. Two volumes—a five-story tower and two Town Homes—are connected by a central garden that preserves mature trees and native flora, covering 40% of the plot. This space enhances the environmental quality and encourages social interaction and bioclimatic comfort. The use of exposed concrete, enclosure walls, and permeable finishes responds to the aesthetics of the surroundings and operational efficiency. Additionally, sustainable strategies such as rainwater harvesting, water reuse, solar panels, and cross ventilation ensure a low environmental impact. Rebollar 86 creates a functional and harmonious habitat, redefining the relationship between architecture and nature. Its design proposes a conscious urban housing model that respects and revitalizes its surroundings.
