In Dwell, the article “Mexico City Black Concrete Homes” by Michele Koh Morollo, presents two residences designed by Fernanda Canales in Mexico City as an exploration of materiality, privacy, and relationship with the urban environment. The publication highlights the use of black-pigmented concrete, interior courtyards, and strategic openings to create domestic spaces that balance introspection, natural light, and a connection to the surrounding cityscape.
