LASSALA+ELENES Arquitectos
LASSALA+ELENES Arquitectos makes use of the wall as a limit of space, pulling it out of anonymity and revealing it with the deaf voice of light, so as to rightly fulfill a spacial function, and making appear the visible difference between architecture and sole construction.
This is where architects Carlos Lassala Mozo, Eduardo Lassala Mozo and Guillermo R. Orozco y Orozco take pledge, believing the wall as the true protagonist of architecture, and emptiness as the true protagonist of livable space.
Their pledge has taken the firm into winning several prizes and acknowledgements, such as the III Premio Estatal de Vivienda Residencial Plus Jalisco 2010 (III Jalisco State Prize for Residential Plus Housing 2010), the Golden Medal in the VI Bienal Iberoamerocana CIDI de arquitectura & landscape 2012/ 2013 (VI Architecture and Landscape CIDI Iberoamerican Bienal 2012/2013), in the category of Sustainability, and recently winning the prize in Best Architectural Single Residence Mexico of the International Property Awards Americas. The firm has also obtained acknowledgements from Comex and the Jalisco State Architects College, in 2010, and from Villeroy & Bosch, all for the “S” House in 2012.
Lassala Elenes Arquitectos looks for a special solution always never different, but never always the same, providing a style of its own, from which emotions flow, but correctly complying with program needs.” comments architect Carlos Lassala Mozo.
