POVEÑA rests quietly on a hillside outside San Miguel de Allende. Three volumes with pure geometries: a main house and two bungalows are positioned as observatories, framing the landscape with precision.

Oriented to the south, the architecture opens toward the valley and distant peaks, engaging light and horizon. Tzalam wood introduces warmth and texture, allowing the buildings to settle naturally into the site.

The project is defined by atmosphere rather than form. Air, shadow, and proportion shape the experience. Each space offers a pause, a controlled view, a moment of stillness.
