Designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners in collaboration with Legorreta & Legorreta architects working as a joint venture, LegoRogers were commissioned to design a new headquarters building for the Bank BBVA Bancomer in Mexico City. The site is one of the most prominent in the Mexican capital, adjacent to Chapultepec Park, and the new building will serve as a physical manifestation of the partnership between Bancomer, Mexico’s premier bank and BBVA, one of the foremost financial institutions in the world.
The collaboration between the two practices - with different architectural languages but with common values has generated a unique approach which, rather than manifesting the diverging expressions of each practice will create an innovative design for this project and for Mexico City.
