We chose cherry colored wood by PROTEAK mixed with natural pine wood to bring warmth into the interio... More

Located in the town of Arandas, Jalisco, the project is located within an existing commercial area dedicated to the sale of wines and spirits. The project consisted of an extension to an existing residual space, which was used as just a general storage space.
