HMZ House: A Choreography of Light and Shadow

A project Where Architectural Vision Meets Sensory Experience

Nestled amidst the scenic golf course landscapes of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, HMZ House, a creation by Lucio Muniain et al., transcends conventional architectural design.


This residence is a profound exploration of sensory architecture, seamless interior living, and a deep integration with natural elements. It stands as a testament to the harmonious blend of dramatic aesthetics, a serene ambiance, and the intricate interplay of light within its meticulously crafted spaces.


The most captivating dimensions of HMZ House emerged not from the initial client brief but from the architect’s imaginative vision. Unfolding a narrative of mystery and discovery, the design team meticulously conceived pathways that transform the journey between everyday domestic areas into an immersive experience. Here, elements like height, narrowness, distance, shadows, and light are not mere features but fundamental sculptors of this architectural marvel.


At its core, HMZ House celebrates the essential interplay of light, framed by raw concrete finished with precision. This embrace of light, shadow, and space defines the very essence of luxury.


Further enriched with the warmth of travertine marble, the distinct character of tzalam wood, and the sleekness of steel and glass, these elements coalesce effortlessly, redefining the paradigm of contemporary living.
