FERNANDA CANALES

In Dezeen text by Ben Dreith, the circular community centre designed by Fernanda Canales for elderly residents in Sonora is presented as a domestic-scale architecture focused on care, social interaction, and community well-being. The publication highlights the use of perforated brick, courtyards, and circular geometries to promote natural ventilation, daylight, and gathering spaces, integrating simple solutions and local materials within an arid and vulnerable border context.
