About Architects Ground

We partner with multifamily & mixed-use developers to create iconic mini CITIES that embody each community’s unique culture and surroundings. Our designs transform ordinary spaces into authentic places, crafting memorable experiences that inspire genuine human connection.

New Foundations

After a decade of education and experience in the U.S., Ricardo Rodríguez returned to his roots in Mexico City with a vision to bring cutting-edge social and technological practices to life. Our A. Ground Method highlights the unique aspects of each project - People, Site, and Building Type - to create IDENTITIES FORGED ON COMMON GROUND.

Leveraging a strong online presence, we cultivate a dialogue centered on innovative proposals for today's cities, driving us to anticipate and lead the future. Our YouTube channel currently engages over 15,000 Architects accross Latin America each month.
