Rancho del Abuelo, designed by Mendiola Arregui, constitutes an equestrian complex located in the state of Jalisco, near the city of Guadalajara.
The architectural program for this location was conceived to integrate specific areas dedicated to the accommodation and care of horses with other zones focused on rest, stay, and contemplation. This articulation establishes various ways to coexist and interact both with the landscape and with equine life in the environment.
The Casa Yakisugi residence, also known as Estúdio Mazara, was conceived by the firm Mazara Estudio Arquitectura. This single-family residential project was planned to establish an intimate connection between the built environments and the surrounding tropical landscape.
The architectural composition of the house is characterized by extended horizontal volumes, pitched roofs with light structure, and a limited selection of materials. The material palette used includes natural stone, wood, and structural components in dark tones.
A weakened horse was left in front of a residential building on Street A in the Bela Vista neighborhood, in the city of Santarem, located in the western part of the state of Paraná.
The animal is in a severe state of weakness: it tries to stand up but cannot remain on its feet and falls to the ground.
This situation attracted the attention of a local resident, who requested assistance because she did not know how to safely support the animal. She shared her concern over the horse's suffering but feared approaching it due to the unknown reaction of the animal. There are concerns that the horse is suffering from hunger, thirst, and needs urgent veterinary care.
In Santarem, reports of animal cruelty and abandonment can be submitted to the Municipal Department of Environment's Anonymous Tip Service (Semma) by calling (93) 99209-4670.
Experts advise against attempting to help the animal independently without technical support to avoid aggravating possible injuries and preventing accidents.
Acts of abuse, cruelty, harm, or mutilation of animals are a crime in Brazil, according to Federal Law No. 9.605/1998.
The g1 editorial team contacted Semma to inquire about the measures that will be taken to save the horse and awaits a response.
The design team described that there are places marked by the way they are lived. Ibiza symbolizes a way of life where time unfolds around shadows, landscape, and collective spaces. This concept served as the basis for Studio Metamorphosis when designing this summer residence in Albacete.
The studio's objective was to reinterpret the spirit of Ibizan rural architecture (arquitectura payesa), but without making an exact copy, adapting it to a modern setting from a contemporary perspective.
