Tunich House by Ápiron
Located in Telchac Puerto, Mexico, the house by Ápiron offers a private coastal retreat. Designed in 2022, it features a stone base supporting a polished concrete volume, maximizing privacy and sea views. The structure integrates local Toh stone and a distinctive “bajareque” lattice. Its 370-square-meter layout includes interactive social spaces on the ground floor and family rooms above, blending grey tones with wood and natural fibers.
About Tunich House
Facade and Volumetry
The volumetry of the main façade was proposed with the premise of. The design is proposed as a stone base from the region called Toh, that protects the interior of the house and on which a solid polished concrete volume sits. On the other side, the northern façade opens completely to the sea through large windows and balconies with views that frame nature.
Interior Layout
With 370 square meters of construction, the house is distributed on two levels which separate the social sphere from the private areas. On the main floor, we find the kitchen, living room, and dining room all integrated into a large interactive open space; service areas and a guest room are also found on the first floor, while upstairs the three family rooms are located.
Access Points and Features
The project has three access points, one on each front of the property. The main one is located on the south façade generated through a series of steps that uprises the house from the natural terrain, with the purpose of to the south through large windows, connecting to interior patios and the exterior social areas. Within these spaces, what stands out are the various concrete furniture made on-site and designed seeking low maintenance furniture for the corrosive climate that we normally find on the coast. The grey tones of the interior of the project are combined with wood, natural fibres, and warm lighting, creating simple environments that invite you to relax in this beach house.
