A 'Spontaneous' Great Room

The base of the Sierra Madre mountain range, in suburban Monterrey, Mexico, is the enviable location of a home designed by architect Mauricio Lobeira for himself, his two children and his partner, Mauricio de la Garza, a landscape designer.

There are two structures on the property-a 7,500-square-foot, four-bedroom main house and a one-bedroom poolhouse. Both were built from the ground up.

The main home was completed last year after just 18 months of construction, and the area pictured here is one corner of a large great room that encompasses another seating area, a dining room and a bar.
