Casa Kanso

Casa KansoWas designed by architect Robby Friedman, a longtime resident of San Miguel de Allende, in close collaboration with the owner.Drawing from their shared experiences in Japan and Morocco, the design merges the Moroccan ryad's courtyard layout with the simplicity of Japanese aesthetics. The courtyard serves as a natural divider between the expansive shared living area and the private quarters, allowing for both seclusion and communal gathering.The materials—steel, concrete, and wood—were chosen for their durability and low maintenance.
