9.27.10 Lake Museum at Parque Ecológico Lago de Texcoco — PROJECTS
Floating over the Nabor Carrillo Lake, this building is part of the overall strategy of the Texcoco Lake Ecological Park. It can be accessed through a system of docks and walkways surrounding the different volumes, and allowing a great variety of panoramic views of its aquatic context.
The mass volume of the Museum combines a series of blind walls and lattices that enhance its texture and create contrast between solid and void. The program is divided into five concrete structures that lay on the lake bed.
Areas such as this will promote activities seldom performed in the city; boating and sailing sports, mountain cycling, as well as flora and fauna observation. These activities will help create a new relationship with the water and promote environmental awareness on the project.
By creating a social basis with an environmental backdrop, inhabitants are provided with public spaces for recreation purposes enabling them to get closer to an environmental area.
