How would you like to live the rest of your life? We have asked ourselves the same question. Each one of us looks alike because we are human beings, but… we are truly different, we have different tastes, different needs… and above all a personality, each of us is “unique” in our own particular way. And this is where we have always asked ourselves: Why are all the homes for sale almost, all the same? Because almost all of them seem to be cut from the same mold? Do we all have the same personality? The same beliefs, or the same way of being? or the same tastes?
The reality is that on many occasions we let situations define us and we choose the least bad option.
IN HARMONY WITH THE SPIRIT
We are clear that living a full life, not only contemplates covering the basic physiological needs, also we must fill and satisfy the soul through stimuli that make us feel alive, we want to create a community that promotes Artistic Expression, invites to exercise, Yoga and Meditation, live with Nature every day at all times, promote a healthy diet, be designed for all family members through Pet Friendly spaces, but truly create a Community of people who share life with the same values.
Contact with nature transmits us tranquility, and provides us with a good dose of calm, and it can be the anti-stress oxygen that lowers the revolutions of the day, creating a bubble of peace that gives us mental health; with outdoor spaces for Exercise, Yoga and Meditation, as well as promoting healthy Eating through an Organic Garden and Hydroponic Cultivation.
PEACE “If you are sad, you are living in the past. Being anxious in some way means that you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present ”Lao Tzu
We look for admirers of expressions, who through spaces surrounded by murals, installations, poetry and positive sentences written on the walls, floors and furniture, open us to experiment. We want to breathe art and expressions, and through workshops with local artists inspire us to create, to dream.
“Art is dreaming, it is living, it is feeling. Art sears your soul, moves you, transports you. It has a magical power in people if we open ourselves to experiment. And best of all, it invites us to express ourselves, to bring out the artist that we all carry inside ... Because art can be a great discovery. " Mercè López, The heART Ambassadors
We want to create a Pet Friendly community that provides a better life for all of our loved ones, because for many of us the love of our pets is as great as if they were our children.
Because it is difficult to live with people who do not share the same ideals and values, and society is very heterogeneous in ways of thinking, what is important for one may be trivial for others. We are convinced that in order to truly have a full life in society, community must be formed. The most important thing in real estate products should not be the business, but rather bring people who are like-minded closer to improving their quality of life, with tribal projects.
We care a lot about nature, we hate how people just eliminate and destroy everything in order to accommodate. Our duty should simply be to improve each place where we decide to build, we must simply coexist and have respect for the earth. That is the reason why we have decided to only occupy a maximum of 30% of the land, respecting the existing trees, in addition to providing even more green surface than we found, ultimately managing to increase the total green area by 130%.
The project promotes through passive and bioclimatic design the reduction of the use of resources, economic savings, with the aim of achieving a more sustainable and environmentally friendly housing product.
Passive design strategies are proposed to reduce energy consumption and increase the efficiency of the building, taking advantage of renewable energies for lighting, taking advantage of natural light, in addition to generating energy, through photovoltaic solar panels, located on the roof. Efficient installations are also very important, as well as the high-efficiency LED artificial lighting system.
1.- The interior spaces are illuminated throughout the day by natural lighting.
2.- Solar panels on the roof that generate energy.
3.- Cover with Thermal Insulation, to prevent thermal transmission.
4.- Natural green roof with grass as Thermal Insulation and social recreation area, in addition to cultivation area, for edible plants.
Natural lighting is achieved through the facades, where each unit has a single level taking advantage of 360 degrees of natural light. A bamboo and vegetation lattice is used to mitigate the overheating of the facades and to have a better control of the light and an adequate thermal environment in the interior spaces.
1.- All spaces have indirect natural light.
2.- The design of the house promotes natural ventilation to renew the indoor air and ensure an optimal level of comfort.
A more intelligent use of water is applied, both inside and outside the building, using technologies to reduce consumption, efficient installations, recycling water through the separation of gray water, then taking advantage of it for the irrigation of green areas, as well as its control and measurement.
The selection of responsible and local materials is proposed, in addition to minimizing the amount of waste in construction, as well as materials with recycled components and low environmental impact.
Although we know the human impact generated in nature by the settlement of people to live, we want to minimize it by preserving existing trees, also respecting natural life, trying to cohabit with squirrels, birds, iguanas and coatis that visit the land regularly, promoting a Low Ecological Footprint project

Live in Harmony with the Natural Environment
With a total of 204 apartments on 20 levels, WOHA is designed with the concept of creating a community in harmony with its natural environment, promoting well-being to its users through a conscious way of life. The architectural program consists of a basement with 2 levels of parking, green amenities, outdoor areas and 19 levels of apartments. In addition to a covered area for power generation use.
Design Premises
The Design Concept is based mainly on 3 guiding principles:
1.- Efficient and functional design.
2.- All units must enjoy the privileged view of the Caribbean Sea.
3.- It must focus on sustainability and energy savings, through a passive bioclimatic design.
Efficient and Accessible Design, through High Functionality
The concept is based on creating a module that resolves the ideal layout of a 100m2 home, in the most efficient way possible, all within a 7.7m wide x 11m long rectangle. The main living spaces, the dining room, living room and master bedroom, are directed towards the predominant view of the sea. The second bedroom and the kitchen overlook the city.
This module is designed to have cross ventilation. This is achieved by reproducing the module in a single bay, taking advantage the airflow. The design of this module is meticulously resolved in such a way that it avoids having corridors and residual circulation spaces. The unit is accessed directly from the elevator, which also avoids having unnecessary common corridors between units, with emergency exits and continuous service with lift truck.
All units must have a view of the sea
Once the module was resolved with the highest efficiency, the next design premise was that 100% of the units should benefit from the view that the site has.
Sustainable Approach
Climate Analysis
The climate of the region is warm and sub-humid, with abundant rainfall in summer and lower rainfall in winter. The average annual temperature ranges between 28ºC and 32ºC during the summer and from 26ºC to 27ºC during the winter.
The following graph shows the temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, solar incidence and cloudiness. This graph helps us understand the climatic behavior during the year, allowing us to develop bioclimatic strategies to achieve architectural comfort.
Bio-Environmental Diagram
In the following diagram of bio-environmental comfort, it is observed that the climate is located in the pink area throughout the year. This indicates that the strategy to follow to achieve thermal comfort in the architectural space should be: Cross Ventilation and Sun Protection.
Comfort Percentage Diagram
In the previous diagram, the percentage of comfort represented throughout the year with the selected bioclimatic strategy is observed. We can say that cross ventilation is less efficient in summer, so artificial ventilation techniques are recommended during that season.
The world is changing and society is becoming more aware. Today we are more concerned with the environment and the legacy that we will pass on to the next generation. We are more careful with what we consume and we are trying to be more careful with our habits, living and growing in harmony with the environment, leaving behind excessive consumption.
WOHA is conceived through the idea of generating a change in the way we live, promoting:
1.- The reduction of energy consumption
2.- Recycling of waste for new uses
3.- Reuse and resource efficiency
