Community Center Pavilion
An ephemeral structure that transcends. Thousands of compacted earth blocks that will be used in the construction of a Community Center in Ocuilan (State of Mexico).
The ponds represent the geographical condition of Mexico City: A certain balance between land and water. The experience offers visitors a subtle walk to the exact point where water turns into air. Reflexes. The footbridge is later cloistered between two walls. Light games. In the end, the surprise.
