[COZUMEL NORTH RESORT]> THE DEVELOPMENT INCLUDES A 150-SUITE HOTEL AND 90 BEACH APARTMENTS. THE SITE IS LOCATED IN THE NORTH COAST OF COZUMEL ISLAND IN THE MEXICAN CARIBBEAN. THE SITE IS NARROW AND DEEP AND MASSING IS DENSE. THEREFORE, AN ELONGATED L-SHAPED SCHEME IS ESTABLISHED IN ORDER TO ALLOW VIEWS TOWARDS THE SEA FOR ALL APARTMENTS AND SUITES. ONE SIDE OF THE "L" IS THE HOTEL, AND THE OTHER IS THE RESIDENTIAL WING. THE INTERSECTION CONTAINS SHARED FACILITIES AND VERTICAL CIRCULATIONS. BOTH WINGS ARE SINGLE LOADED AND PRIVATE SPACES ARE DOUBLE HEIGHT IN ORDER TO MAXIMIZE VIEWS TOWARDS THE SEA, WHILE COMPLEMENTARY BEDROOMS AND SERVICES ARE OPENED TO THE BACK; TOWARDS THE EXISTING GOLF COURSE. THE PIECE IS UNIQUE AND SHOWS A STRONG SCULPTURAL CHARACTER. IT IS A CONCRETE FRAMED STRUCTURE WITH AN ENVELOPE MADE OF CERTIFIED WOODEN PANELS. THESE MODULAR SERIAL PANES ARE MOVABLE AND TINTED IN WHITE SHADES.
