Flia II: Harmonious Blend of Sustainability, Tradition, and Modern Design

"Flia", a casual abbreviation of "familia" in Argentina, encapsulates the essence of community and togetherness. This sentiment is at the heart of a visionary project brought to life by two Argentine nationals in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca.
Their dream merges the post-COVID economic revival of a local community with the flourishing ecotourism industry, creating a vibrant space for connection, learning, and shared
experiences. Grounded in eco-sustainable values and luxury, this family-run initiative celebrates Oaxacan artisanal craftsmanship while embracing contemporary building technologies. The result is a seamless integration of heritage and innovation, a modern reinterpretation of local traditions set within a lush, tropical landscape.

Location and Concept:
Nestled on a 2,772 m² property in Barra Colotepec, just steps from the beach, La Flia II Complex is designed as an open, permeable structure. It features 12 habitable units with courtyards that invite natural light, airflow, and stunning views, creating an ideal balance between functionality and aesthetics.
The elevated construction, inspired by stilt architecture, offers advantages like temperature regulation, easy maintenance, and a shaded communal space perfect for sports, cultural events, and recreational activities. Its terraced layout, following the
hill's natural contours, maximizes sunlight in public areas while harmoniously blending into the surrounding environment. The design transforms the complex into a respectful backdrop, complementing the 6 villas of Flia I while preserving the natural beauty of the Pacific coastline and the Sierra Oaxaqueña.

Architectural Program:

- 12 Apartments: Each 118 m² of living space with 38 m² of private terraces featuring 2 Jacuzzis. These units include two master suites, a living area, a kitchen, and a dining space with breathtaking ocean views.
