In a series of interviews, Andrés Felipe Mesa Trujillo, CEO of M+GROUP and one of the main architects behind Pueblito Caribeño in Punta Cana, shares his vision of this unique development. Mesa’s career began in 2000 when he founded his first company, Mesa Arquitectura. Since then, he has been a leader in architectural design and real estate project management. In the interview, Mesa highlights three key aspects of Pueblito Caribeño: the significance of the central plaza, the focus on sustainability, and the inspiration behind the project.
The Central Plaza: A key element of Pueblito Caribeño in Punta Cana
For Mesa, the central plaza is the heart of the Pueblito Caribeño project. Inspired by traditional Caribbean plazas, this space was designed as the structural axis of the development. It serves as a social meeting point and houses institutional buildings that revitalize the area. Additionally, it encourages community interaction. Besides the main plaza, the pathways reveal smaller, intimate plazas. These are designed for relaxation and gatherings, introducing greenery and providing a cool, shaded environment.
Commitment to sustainability
Sustainability is a fundamental pillar in the design of Pueblito Caribeño. Mesa explains that M+GROUP has integrated sustainable practices at every stage of the development. These range from using local materials to carefully planning resource management, such as water and energy. The architecture respects the Caribbean climate by using design elements that optimize light and shade, ensuring thermal comfort. This commitment not only preserves the natural environment of Punta Cana but also adds lasting value to the project.
Inspiration behind the creation of Pueblito Caribeño in Punta Cana
Pueblito Caribeño blends tradition and modernity. Mesa and his team at M+GROUP achieved this by reinterpreting traditional Caribbean architecture within a contemporary context. The vibrant colors of the facades reflect the joy and folklore of the Caribbean, adding unique warmth to the environment. Mesa emphasizes how design elements, including the depth of walls and openings, create a play of light and shadow. This approach enhances the visual and sensory experience for residents.
World-Class architectural design
The design of Pueblito Caribeño in Punta Cana goes beyond architecture. It is a testament to Mesa’s collaborative approach in all his projects. Viewing real estate development as a team effort, he incorporates various disciplines into the project. This creates a distinctive mark in the sector. M+GROUP, renowned globally for its architectural design, embraces the challenge of capturing the essence of the Caribbean. Moreover, it delivers exceptional comfort and quality of life.
This project is not just about real estate; it is a celebration of Caribbean culture, environmental respect, and vibrant community life. The central plaza, sustainability, and the project’s creative inspiration reflect a comprehensive approach. Together, they aim to offer a unique living experience in the heart of Punta Cana.
