contest Memorial del Sismo

Col. HipĆ³dromo

Architecture that collapses and that in each ruin carries with it cries and memories that can hardly be seen with another face.

The proposal intervenes in a building that collapsed after the earthquake that occurred in Mexico City on September 19 that lends its function to the memory.

The structure takes on meaning when the ground floor joins the street as a public space, its purpose, to go through it with a museographic sense.

Composition of voids and volumes, of words of reflection in the manner of reverences in its façade, its formal expression pretends to adjust to the rudeness of the old building.
