She personally designed the buildings, grounds, pools, and workers camp down to the smallest detail, and supervised nearly every aspect of construction over the course of 28 years.

It is the 5th Largest building in the world. ]]> 2020-10-05 21:15:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ahargrav/ms51gw4732ivzhgy/wish/804800845 https://padlet.com/ahargrav/ms51gw4732ivzhgy/wish/807883641 designed by Jeanne Gang]]> 2020-10-06 18:10:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ahargrav/ms51gw4732ivzhgy/wish/807883641 qdunlap5844 https://padlet.com/ahargrav/ms51gw4732ivzhgy/wish/807896308
Tatiana is a Mexican architect born in Mexico City in 1972. She mixes geometry with nature and works to blend the material works with the natural world. Her work tends to focus on sustainability and social housing. Sustainability is a newer concept in architecture that is growing fast and working to make building interact with the natural world not only by using sustainable resources but also using less renewable energy to power the building.
