I like the geometric concrete block facade of this building by HGR Arquitectos in Mexico City.
Museo Nacional de Antropología
The Museo Nacional de Antropología was designed in 1964 by Pedro Ramírez Vázquez, Jorge Campuzano and Rafael Mijares. Vázquez was also involved in the building and branding for the ’68 Olympics.
Eco Pavilion
This temporary pavilion was designed by estudio MMX for the 2011 ECO Experimental Museum in Mexico City. Thousands of ropes weave together with the original museum architecture to redefine the courtyard space.
