TATIANA BILBAO ESTUDIO
Tatiana Bilbao’s project is a full scale two story and two bedroom sustainable housing prototype that offers a flexible design that can respond to the different needs of each family. The goal of the project is to offer a solution to Mexico’s affordable housing shortage.
The low-cost Sustainable Housing Model designed by Tatiana Bilbao, a Mexican architect, is a full scale two story and two bedroom sustainable housing solution that can adapt to suit varying numbers of residents, and can expand as a family grows. The model can also be altered to suit the variety of climates around the country, by using a variety of materials and spatial layouts.
Site specific to Mexico to address the affordable housing shortage.
Each dwelling costs around 7000 USD up to 14000 USD depending on a variety of factors including the location, the construction phase selected, and local regulations, with the government covering a portion, based on need.
The house model was commissioned by Mexico’s government as part of a program that helps people with low incomes to buy their own house, by subsidizing half the cost and offering the rest as credit.
