Ex Richaud Factory House / Richaud Arquitectura

The old factory of “Galletas Richaud Hermanos” was located in the San Román neighborhood, in the City of San Francisco de Campeche until the mid-'60s. Then it became the family residence until 1981 when it was abandoned; the original sign is still legible today. In 1989, a 619 sq. meter section of the property with access from another road was used to build a house for one of the family members. It is this same family that has recovered a 277 sq. meter addition using part of the original façade of the factory. The unbeneficial relationship of the preexisting Colonial building and the residence from the ‘80s generates the search for a meeting point; the dining room is remodeled, extended and opened, for a continuous relationship with the garden that they now share.
