Javier Senosiain

He is the founder of the Organic Architecture firm in Mexico City, which has been responsible for designing offices, houses, factories, and co-ops.

[4] He has focused his projects and research from Bio-architecture to organic architecture, which are terms explored in the origin of Frank Lloyd Wright, Antoni Gaudi, and Juan O’Gorman foundations.

Senosiain mentions in several interviews the influences in his work, such as Barragán with his imposing volumes and O'Gorman with his organic houses.

His work includes typical Mexican materials and artistic traditions, and such details where windows become eyes and tiles become scales.

[5] Currently the architect Senosiain teaches the classes of "Theory of architecture" and "Design Workshop" at the UNAM.

[6] The Organic Architecture firm, which he founded, has been responsible for many large projects that demonstrate how our natural environment is integrated into urban planning.

[7] An example of his architecture is known as Nido de Quetzalcoatl, located in Naucalpan, State of Mexico, finished in 2007.

However, green areas and open spaces were not only respected but were also advantageous in order to keep the natural characteristics of the place.

Bio-architecture also shows how architects can take advantage of the resources that modern technology has put at their disposal to solve unusual forms that are difficult to execute according to traditional techniques.

Senosiain explores in his book a trajectory in the history of architecture, from Frank Lloyd Wright and Bruno Zevi to Alvar Aalto and Eero Saarinen.

These architects already proposed a vision that viewed modern architecture as a relationship with humans and their natural habitat.
