By addressing users’ needs directly and seeing them as potential sources of inspiration and strength, Rojkind Arquitectos seeks new directions in architectural practice - evoking common identities through the exploration of uncharted geometries that address questions of space, function, technology, materials, structure,and construction methods related directly to geography, climate, and local urban experiences. By pursuing all projects that represent a particular design challenge, Rojkind Arquitectos has been able to develop a wide an evergrowing spectrum of designs initiatives, from the intimacies of small objects to the intricacies of large buildings and master plans. In recognition of his approach, Vitra design museum along with the Art Center Pasadena will be exhibiting rojkind arquitectos in Germany later this year, as part of Entry 2006 “Open House: Intelligent Living by-design”. With Arturo Ortiz, Derek Dellekamp, and Tatiana Bilbao, Michel Rojkind co-founded MXDF Urban Research Center (2004). The main object of MXDF is to intervene in specific areas of the urban development, modifying the production of urban space in Mexico through the systematic study of social, political, environmental, global, and cultural conditions. In order to achieve this, MXDF has been collaborating with several universities in Mexico, Studio Basel, ETH Zürich, and MIT in Boston Massachusetts. MXDF is a non-profit organization. Recently Michel has been short-listed to participate in severallarge scale international projects, including Canada, Kuwait, and Spain.
