Cousiño Macul Masterplan

An integrated and sustainable urban model

The Cousiño Macul Masterplan proposes a sustainable urban solution that densifies the land with a diverse housing offer, optimizing connectivity and access to essential services. 

 

Its structure is organized around a central curvilinear street that connects existing streets and opens the project to the Andes, integrating the natural landscape with an urban model that prioritizes pedestrian mobility and social interaction. 

Connectivity

The strategic location provides easy access to major highways and public transportation, ensuring efficient and sustainable mobility.
