KINEKI La Punta
A residential project that combines comfort, conscious living and respect for the natural surroundings of Oaxaca.
KINEKI La Punta is the largest project built with the system so far: 64 modules and 1,200 square metres on the coast of Oaxaca. It was developed in collaboration with Mario Conde.
The structure is solid treated pine and the walls are fibre-cement panels with a polyurethane core, a combination chosen for the coastal climate: heat, humidity and salt. The façades are resolved with timber lattices and balconies that give shade without closing off the view.
The project includes rainwater harvesting, water recycling and treatment, and landscaping worked with native species. The idea is not to occupy the site, but to settle into it.
More than a building, a manifesto: architecture can occupy a site without dominating it.
The system behind it
La Punta was built from the same 3.60 metre module as every other project.
