The exterior is defined by a concrete monolith, whose stark presence is softened by warm wood cladding on the ground floor."

DLCA HOUSE embodies contemporary Mexican architecture through a balance of contrasting materials, spatial clarity, and contextual awareness. The residence covers 496 m across three levels and is oriented north-south to optimize climatic conditions.

Orthogonal design emphasizes articulated vertical and horizontal planes across façade and interior spaces. Lead architects are Miguel Angel Delgado, Juan Antonio Corcuera, and Missael Quintero. Structural work by PALOMAR ESTRUCTURAS; landscape by ESTUDIO CAMALEON; interiors by KENYA RODRIGUEZ. Products include AutoDesk, Adobe, Cesantoni, and Stanza.
