Casa Amona by COLAR Colectivo de Arquitectura Completed in San Cristóbal de las Casas
Casa Amona, a 155 m² residence, has been finalized by COLAR Colectivo de Arquitectura in 2025, located in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Mexico, adjacent to a major green space. The lead architect, Santiago Constantino De Angoitia, collaborated with a design team that included Maximiliano Animas Rueda, Mateo Torres Sánchez, and Roberto Marroquín Polín. Structural engineering was overseen by Virgilio Dominguez, while Terruño Paisaje managed the landscaping. Drawings were created by Priscila Aguilar, and the project was photographed by Ariadna Polo, curated by Valentina Díaz under the Houses category. The architects noted that the home maintains a subtle connection with the street, focusing daily activities inward, with openings and courtyards fostering visual links to both the landscape and interior. The project is featured on ArchDaily, with the Spanish version accessible.
