CB位于瓜达拉哈拉中心区和美式街区的最佳街区之一，该项目融合了一座遗产建筑和一个新的综合开发项目，促进了城市中心区的重新激活和密集化。在介入之前，这栋遗产房屋的状况很糟糕，所以项目的目标集中在保存原有的布局，拆除多年来增加的墙体和空间。

Located within one of the best-kept blocks of Guadalajara’s Centro and Americana neighborhoods, CB is a project that merges a heritage building and a new, mixed-use development, promoting the reactivation and densification of the city’s central areas. The heritage house was in a bad state before the intervention, so the project centered its’ aim on saving the original layout and removing the walls and spaces added throughout the years.

在重新设计中，尊重了原有住宅的整体配置，外立面的装饰物被恢复，中央天井被抢救出来，面向天井的主要走廊被用来增加临街的商业地段，放置在遗产建筑内而不破坏任何已有的元素。在后面的区域–这并不是原来建筑的一部分，而是作为存储空间来使用的–附属建筑最高为五层，从街道层面看不出来。该项目包括底层的停车空间和10个住宅单元，其中8个单元有两间卧室，2个单元为开放式工作室。

The totality of the original home’s configuration was respected in the redesign; the facade’s ornaments were restored, the central patio was rescued, and the main patio-facing hallway was used to add commercial lots to the street level, placed within the heritage building without damaging any preexisting elements. In the back area — which wasn’t part of the original building and had come to be used as storage space — the annex tops off at five stories, imperceptible from street level. The project includes parking space on the ground floor and 10 residential units, eight of which feature two bedrooms, and two which function as open-plan studios.

该项目的特色元素包括其厚实的墙体，允许搁置，最大限度地利用公寓的存储空间，并参考遗产建筑的土坯隔断的密度。屋顶的功能是作为一个共享使用空间，有植物、烧烤架、桌子和卫生间。新建筑的外墙采用了模仿传统建筑的窗户和拱门，在古老和现代之间建立了一种尊重和微妙的对话。

Among the intervention’s characteristic elements are its thick walls, which allow for shelving that maximizes the apartments’ storage space and reference the density of the heritage building’s adobe partitions. The rooftop functions as a shared-use space with plants, a grill, tables, and bathrooms. The new building’s facades feature windows and arches that emulate the ones of the heritage building, establishing a respectful and subtle dialogue between the old and the contemporary.
