Hito at Tecuán

COSTALEGRE, JALISCO MEXICO

At the confluence of two beaches, what resembles a rocky prow is formed in El Tecuán, Jalisco, where this landmark rises: an architectural gesture that seeks to respond with beauty to an extraordinary landscape. Designed in collaboration with architect Alberto Campo Baeza, the project was born from the idea of creating a space for contemplation, a place that dialogues with the sea, the wind and the passage of time.

The proposal materializes as a large stereotomic box, excavated in the rock and built with the same stone extracted from the site. This gesture generates an elevated horizontal platform, which seems to emerge from the bowels of the earth and from which the horizon is dominated. The upper surface, treated as a continuous plane, is excavated at its edges to form benches and staggered rafts that invite pause and enjoyment of the landscape without railings that interrupt the view.

Inside the box, an empty space of great height receives light through skylights and openings arranged in a precise rhythm. The structure of reinforced concrete beams and pillars defines a clear and forceful order, while the openings, open to the sea and the wind, allow the interior to be filled with sounds and breezes. It is a space capable of hosting multiple uses: concerts, exhibitions, conferences or simply contemplation.

A second platform, smaller and folded in on itself, unfolds over the nearby rocks, reinforcing the idea of a project that blends in with the site. This landmark does not seek to impose itself, but to integrate itself, becoming over time part of the landscape of El Tecuán, a contemporary theme where architecture and nature meet.
