9 Palms Los Cabos Branded Residences – Concept Residence

This project took inspiration from the local environment and desert textures of the surrounding topography. Using rammed earth and earthen facades from the local material, the project emerges out of the slopes as discretized large interlocking boulders, mimicking rocks found on-site.
