Kineki comes from the Nahuatl word quinequi, meaning “he wants.” Most of the time, architects solve problems for others, developing ideas supported by external budgets. In contrast, Kineki Tepoztlán did not stem from a preconceived idea but rather from a personal need: an architect seeking to build his own weekend home with a limited budget.
