Description

Developed for Tecate Pa'l Norte, the Hot Nuts pavilion reimagined a commercial stand as a temporary architectural landmark within one of Latin America's largest music festivals.

Conceived as both a destination and a meeting point, the project encouraged visitors to gather, pause, and experience the festival from a shared public space.

Organized across multiple levels, the structure integrated viewing terraces, hospitality areas, and a central stage beneath a distinctive sculptural roof. Its bold architectural form established a strong visual identity while responding to the operational demands of a high-capacity festival environment.

By combining hospitality, performance, and public space within a single intervention, the project demonstrates how temporary architecture can extend beyond commercial function to become part of the cultural landscape of a large-scale event.
