Urbanism

The spatial structure balances built and open spaces to ensure connectivity and environmental quality. 

Mobility

Vehicular circuits, bicycle paths, and aerobic trails promote efficient, sustainable mobility throughout the project. 

Landscape

The urban design integrates the preserved natural geomorphology, including streams, basins, and native vegetation. 

Spaces

Recreational areas include an ecological park, a clubhouse, a tennis club, and children's play areas in natural creeks. 

Sustainability

Water retention areas and mitigation strategies minimize environmental impact and safeguard local ecosystems. 

Identity

The project is structured around the concept of urban oases, which rescue the essence of Mendoza's landscape at different scales. 

URBAN CONNECTIVITY

The project establishes an intermediate space between the city and the foothills that incorporates equipment and services accessible to all. 

 

The access threshold facilitates a seamless transition, reinforcing the complex's identity and integration with its surroundings. 

ENVIRONMENTAL INNOVATION

The design respects the natural morphology to ensure sustainable land use and water management. 

 

Green areas with native vegetation strengthen the landscape's identity while minimizing the development's ecological impact.
