Ecoparque Bacalar, Bacalar, México (Section sketch)

Colectivo C733
Mexico, est. 2019
2023
A pastel-and-charcoal sketch on paper that proposes a simple raised boardwalk at Ecoparque Bacalar, created to investigate how a slim architectural section meets water, land, and human use.
The sparse white page spotlights a thin charcoal pier hovering over a vivid horizontal band of lake-blue pastel, with a lone tiny figure at the edge that anchors scale and quiet tension.
The drawing links traditional hand-drawing to ecological architecture, using an intimate sectional study to imagine minimal interventions that mediate between people and a sensitive wetland landscape.
