Huentitán Natural Park Pavilion and Entrances

These structures form part of the renovation of an urban park on the northern edge of the city. They were designed by one of the two directors of the Mexican practice as part of a municipal team, with the park’s landscape developed by a local office.

Working with neighbourhood groups, the team added a pavilion that gives shade for many kinds of community use. It is a light metal structure set around a group of newly planted trees, with wide views over the whole park.

At the entrances, tall stone walls create narrow passages that compress the visitor’s view before releasing it into the park, turning each entry into a threshold.
