The Community Development Center, situated in the old Rastro Municipal Slaughterhouse, is a stunning urban revitalization project.

Located in the Las Rosas sector of San Cristobal del las Casas, Mexico, this initiative focused on preserving and repurposing existing infrastructure while utilizing traditional regional materials such as wood and clay tile.

At its core, there's a recreational agora connecting the old structures with new ones, effectively weaving together the site's history, architecture, and the local community. It's a beautiful fusion of the past and present.

San Ignacio House by Amarillo Amate Arquitectura

This home was conceived to pay homage to the traditional construction of adobe houses in northern Jalisco, Mexico. This traditional construction was characterized by clean solid volumes adjacent to sidewalks yet closed off from the street, courtyard style living, and interior passageways informally known as a zaguán. The material palette of brick, tiles, and clay flooring originate from the region allowing the home to coexist with its surroundings.

Casa Lorena by Workshop, Diseño y Construcción

Located in Mérida historic downtown, this early 20th century colonial house is an honest restoration with contemporary space planning modifications. The roof reuses the original Marseille clay tiles that were once on the property, and the walls were stripped down to reveal the original stone walls. This small oasis in the city transports its owners back to the past by the use of warm pastel colors and recognizable 20th century textures.

‘The Shelter’ by Pedro Moncayo Torres Arquitectura

This project’s success is in the way it becomes a part of its landscape through materiality and volumetric approaches. Its constructive system - based on vernacular architecture - becomes a link between contemporary elements of the project and the majestic endemic landscape surrounding the home. Local stone walls, artisanal brick flooring, reed cane, clay roof tiles, and a traditional wooden structure roof provide a stable thermal balance for the home without needing contemporary Western energy systems.

“These people who are building the school, they are so important for the whole project. There will be no school at all if we don’t have our builders on site…I want to show the people behind…In this case I’m very proud of them.” - .egbers

‘Patience in Practice: From a German Classroom to Zimbabwe, Africa’

Our first interview of this series is with German based architect Kristina Egbers.

This conversation with Kristina was fascinating not only because the project that we spent half of our conversation talking about is stunning and on brand with New Vernacular, but her path towards her professional career speaks directly to architectural education, and how educational opportunities can launch unique and fulfilling career opportunities.

This interview was conducted several months ago, and since then Kristina has parted ways with her German based architecture employer to focus full time on her own company,
Studio *K.

Nonetheless, many of the topics discussed in our conversation are still relevant today like the ongoing work of her school project in Harare, Zimbabwe, and her current PHD studies on cultural and tradition decisions during the design process.

Follow “The New Vernacular Podcast” on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Podbean to hear how an Architectural Diploma project turned into a real life design-build project in Zimbabwe, Africa.

San Cristobal House

The architects skilfully combined a contemporary addition with an existing historic house emblematic of Merida’s historic architecture. The existing house was renovated with a restored facade, and traditional Meridian finishes like rough plaster walls, and colourful ‘pasta’ tile floors. The new addition’s rugged concrete frame and glass fenestrations tie into the original stone walls, and wrap around an existing palm tree on the site.

Green School South Africa

The architecture of this sustainable schooling campus located in Paarl Valley Western Cape is defined by the “organic tectonic shapes of the mountains” and “Paarl Berg Boulders.” The various clusters of buildings on the campus are stitched together by natural landscaping and continuous organic shaped “werf walls.” The campus evokes a sense of discovery and play, while fostering an environment for learning. The buildings on the campus are constructed from locally sourced materials like dek-riet ceilings - a thatched material made of various species of grass - ,clay and soil harvested from the site to create the rammed earth walls, lime plaster, and locally sourced pebbles.

Publichood Roastery Pejaten

Sandwiched between buildings in the middle of a dense neighbourhood, the architects designed this space to respond to the unbearable heat of the region; partly due to the effects of global warming. Using local material and labour, the architects transformed an existing 2-story abandoned building into a roastery and hobby space. Gazebos are positioned throughout the project to provide natural shading to cool the exterior environments of the site. The concrete walls allow moss and vegetation to grow on it emphasising the forest beauty surrounding the neighbourhood.
