#vacation-home

I've been married to my wife, Jamie, for 37 years. We have four married children and 16 grandchildren. Our oldest grandchild is 12, and our youngest isn't quite one yet. Once our kids started having children, they all moved back closer to home in Cincinnati, where we live. We own a five-bedroom home that's about 4,000 square feet. We're empty nesters, so there's plenty of space for us, but when the whole family is over, everyone is on top of each other.

Text description provided by the architects. Located in the wooded landscape of Valle de Bravo, Mexico, Ananda is a vacation home designed for a family, redefining the concept of space by blurring the boundaries between public and private areas. The terrace, which becomes the central axis of the project, acts as an architectural element that not only divides but also connects the different spaces.

A vacation house is different from your primary residence, it's a second property used for leisure rather than everyday living. Unlike an investment property, which is purchased mainly to generate income, a vacation home is often bought for personal enjoyment first, with rental income as a possible bonus. People buy these homes for different reasons: some want a personal retreat to escape to on weekends,

We designed and constructed a new vacation home in Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture.
