Estudio ALA is a Mexico-based design and architecture studio established in 2012, directed by the architects Luis Enrique Flores and Armida Fernandez.

The studio approaches each project from a multidisciplinary perspective, "We seek to connect with time, history, place and people," said Estudio ALA. "We believe that architecture must be able to fade the established boundaries and conventional hierarchies, allowing freedom of use where new forms of behaviour can be generated."

In recent years, the firm's work has focused on projects that involve social, cultural and environmental issues.

This project has been shortlisted in the architecture studio of the year category of Dezeen Awards 2022.
