P14

There are houses that, despite being well founded in our time, have windows

that look to the future. The P14 project, designed and executed by SNB

architects, is one of these houses. Although it was completed only in 2020, its

avant-garde handling of space and lighting seems to echo the years to come.

This is achieved through the combination of several factors: large windows,

long corridors, a chromatic contrast and modern furniture. The apartment,

located in one of the best areas of Mexico City, is undoubtedly a preview of the

times to come.

A feeling of vastness invades everyone who enters. This is not only due to the

high windows overlooking the terrace and the city, but to the effect caused by

the play between the deep black of the granite, which dominates the corridors,

and the lighter surfaces of the house. The lights, which enhance the white and

gray tones of the furniture, subtly descend from the ceiling, creating a space

that gives the impression of being extended. This effect is enhanced by the

connection between the common areas, which make it clear that it is a home

with coexistence as its core value: coexistence both between inhabitants and guests,

and with the outside environment.

The personal rooms, unlike the living room and common areas, favor wood and

light colors, creating an atmosphere of more intimate warmth. In the nursery

the dark blue color predominates and a modern design that invites curiosity,

imagination and play. In the bathrooms, which share the futuristic design with

the rest of the house, the use of large marble pieces and clean lines stand out.

The choice of furniture for the house seeks the meeting between the texture of

marble and wood in order to take advantage of the natural elegance of

geometric figures.

For the construction of this unique home, the SNB studio used an innovative

tool: Masterplan. A platform designed by members of your team especially to

simplify and streamline coordinated work in the field of architecture. From

concept and method to result, everything in this project points to the future.
