Embedded into the Mexican landscape, the 2I4E House almost looks like it was chiseled into the mountainside. Its geometric concrete shell emerges from the rocky terrain like it is a part of the existing environment on one side while the stacked boxes cantilever over the ground on the other. Their staggard placement creates a series of terraces and balconies around the exterior, immersing occupants in the verdant surroundings. The raw material was left exposed on the interior developing a minimalist palette that allows the area’s vibrant greenery to pop through the vast amounts of glazing.
