XOCOMAIDAN

In my Xocomaidan project, I was inspired by the central plazas and courtyards of ancient Maya culture. The plaza, designed for rituals and gatherings, serves as a cultural hub. Structures reflecting the sacredness of cacao are arranged around courtyards to strengthen both social and environmental bonds, merging ancient traditions with a sustainable approach.
