Hacienda – Alberto Kalach

2018

Set in the lush landscape of the Yucatán Peninsula, this project by Alberto Kalach reimagines the traditional Mexican hacienda through a contemporary architectural lens. Drawing from regional materials and colonial-era typologies, the design integrates with the surrounding vegetation, water systems, and historic stonework.

Kalach’s approach emphasizes openness, sustainability, and harmony with nature—creating a place that is both rooted in the past and responsive to the present. The result is a serene, porous architecture that blurs the line between built space and tropical environment.
