Pueblo de Fundadores Itaii
Sea of Cortez, Sonora, Mexico
Pueblo de Fundadores (Founders' Town) is a unique 120-unit settlement in a 3-hectare site, and the kickstart of the ambitious development called Itaii, located at the shore of Cortez Sea (called by famous ecologist Jacques Cousteau as the “World Aquarium”), in a total of 1,700 hectares site of pristine land with spectacular contrasting views between the sea, the beaches and the desert within mountain scenery.
The urbanism aims to adapt to natural topography, orography and climate, in the similar organic way fisherman’s first settlers did in the coast, creating small independent pedestrian friendly settlement with plazas and a boardwalk esplanade contiguous to the beach, surrounded by mixed-use buildings, areas where is intended the most intense social life.
It is expected to break ground first phase soon.
