Refuges à Estanzuela et Atenguillo, Mexique
2008 - 2013
These two refuges by Luis Aldrete allow the 3 million people who make the 113 km pilgrimage each year to rest during the heat of the day. Based on the assembly of different modules, the plan can be extended or varied to suit the site. Lacy alternations of solid and void in the walls of precast concrete block allow the passage of light and air. The adobe colour of the blocks accords with the colour of the local earth.
