Antonio Sola Town House by Ambrosi Etchegaray in Mexico City was designed to address the community's history and specific requirements for the preservation of its architectural heritage.

The commision asked to design four living units on a site where a registered house with a historic facade was to be preserved. This condition inspired Ambrosi Etchegaray to rethink life inside the old house and translate the schema into the new building.

The project’s intention was to create interior spaces mimicking the original patios while mantaining privacy of these spaces from the other apartments. These patios allowed each apartment to be naturally lit and ventilated. Garden beds where also incorporated at the limits between the interior and the patios in order to incorporate the landscape within the architecture. This process helped studio understand how to treat a valued heritage with awareness and care and it results in a juxtaposition of memory and urban development.
