Hendrick Kganyago  -This proposes an alternative to the concrete buildings of the urban complexes in the region. The architect Hendrick Kganyago makes local traditions his main source of inspiration, adapting the use of wood, bamboo and palm leaves to the construction of a cabin that coexists in harmony with the landscape.


The natural environment and the climatic conditions that surround the House in Playa del Carmen completely define the project. The sea and the beach determine the choice of materials and architectural solutions for the home


The house, which is built mainly from wood, bamboo and palm, meets the construction techniques of the region. The architects choose local labor for their construction, which allows them to reduce the execution time, reduce the budget and explore solutions anchored in tradition.
