Fuentes 242 - Explanada
Monterrey, Mexico
This exterior gathering space is designed as a serene extension of its architectural surroundings, blending natural textures, contemporary lines, and thoughtful landscaping to create an atmosphere of relaxed sophistication. The layout embraces openness and symmetry, allowing each seating area to feel anchored yet connected within the larger environment. Expansive stone pathways and curved retaining walls highlight lush plantings, offering a soft contrast to the clean geometry of the surrounding buildings. Warm wood furnishings paired with neutral textiles establish inviting zones for conversation and relaxation. Umbrellas provide comfort and shade, allowing the outdoor lounges and dining areas to be enjoyed throughout the day. The integration of trees and layered greenery introduces softness and movement, grounding the modern architecture in a natural, harmonious setting. Strategic elevation changes define intimate pockets while maintaining unobstructed views of the landscape and distant mountains. From above, the fluidity of the design becomes evident—thoughtful curves, balanced proportions, and a careful interplay of light and shadow reveal a space shaped for both visual impact and everyday use. Overall, this outdoor proposal captures a sophisticated balance of elegance and functionality, offering residents and guests a tranquil environment for gathering, relaxing, and connecting with the surrounding landscape.
