Pininfarina has just shared an update on its new Light Towers luxury residential project in Mérida, Mexico.
The development broke ground last Wednesday with local politicians in attendance to celebrate the beginning of construction on a project the firm and developers Branson say represents a "path forward; a nod to new ideas, fresh perspectives, and hope for future generations."
Featuring a V-shaped pair of 17- and 18-story volumes connected at the base by a five-story podium, the design centers a "green valley" at its core to create a communal space with private terraces, wellness amenities, and a co-working space all entwined with the building’s concept.
A total of 121 modular "Skyvilla" condominiums come with configurations that offer between 25% and 75% of their total floor areas to greenspace. Interior color palettes used in the residential units evoke local traditions, the design team says.
This is Pininfarina’s first residential project in the country. Once complete it will join the new U.S. consulate building from Miller Hull Partnership, which is expected to be ready just a short walk away by the end of the year.
