This 5,000 sq. ft. office building for the Sonoran branch of Save The Children, in Cuidad Obregon, Mexico was built to demonstrate the use of local, natural and low-cost materials such as straw, clay, carrizo and lime. It's construction exemplifies a way of building that is unlike modern commercial construction.
Designed organically, new ideas and experiments were regularly incorporated during the entire process. Built using only a sketch of the floor plan, the building evolved to meet its own particular conditions and was not dictated by a fixed set of plans.
