Design project developed by FR-EE Fernando Romero EnterprisE, construction by Mauricio Ceballos and Team.

A LEED-certified project aiming to save up to 50% of electrical energy and 40% in water consumption.

Caja Popular, a savings bank, decided to hold a tender to design a building that would consolidate all their operations under one roof. The competition was won with a proposal featuring innovative environmental standards, a three-stage construction process, and a design promoting collaborative work.

The three-level building surrounds a circular courtyard, with the triangle motif reminiscent of Caja Popular’s logo—a tree. Generous staircases encourage chance encounters among workers, fostering a sense of community.

The LEED Gold-certified building served as an inspiration for surrounding structures and garnered praise from the governor of Guanajuato.
