Pininfarina architecture designs 'Aldea Uh May' wellness community for Tulum, Mexico
Italian design house Pininfarina takes to Tulum‘s small artisan town of Francisco Uh May to plan a vibrant residentialcommunity dubbed ‘Aldea Uh May.’ While the company is known widely for its futuristic concept cars and yachts, the team of architects have harnessed this automotive heritage and applied its sleek aesthetic to the built environment.
The artistic direction for of the twenty-hectare masterplan, including 120 multi-family and single family residential lots, was overseen by Pininfarina. To support the community, the group developed a proprietary transportation and mobility network, as well as various clusters of wellness-focused public spaces and amenities. Keeping in mind the natural surroundings, the masterplan ensures that over forty percent of the existing jungle landscape will be preserved.
