Mazul Fase II
/Write to us
Mazul is a residential project conceived as a seaside retreat. Located in Santa Elena el Tule, one of Oaxaca’s most paradisiacal beaches, this development emerges from the union between architecture and nature. Its essence lies in balance: tranquility, respect, and freedom within an environment that invites one to live with calm and wholeness
Geography defines it. Facing the mighty Pacific Ocean and embraced by the rocky formations of the Sierra Madre del Sur, Mazul unfolds within a unique landscape. Every design decision seeks to blend into this context, creating spaces that coexist with their surroundings without altering them, opening to the horizon as an extension of the land itself.
Mazul is not just a residential complex—it is a way of experiencing the Oaxacan coast. A project that understands the beauty of the essential: the sea, the land, and life in community. A destination that remains authentic and serene, as if it had always been there.
Bernardo Quinzaños Oria (CCA):
CCA, led by Bernardo Quinzaños, operates as an independent studio aiming to transform architecture into a tool for social and cultural impact. Their approach begins with research and a deep conceptual understanding of context, shaping projects that go beyond mere construction to create lasting community connections.
Their practice is broad and collaborative, integrating architecture, urbanism, and cultural management through an inclusive, interdisciplinary system that amplifies the talent of each collaborator. CCA treats every project as a dialogue, where ideas expand and gain strength when shared.
Each proposal is an exercise in reflection and synthesis—spaces that are clear and precise, yet open to transformation over time and with those who inhabit them
Santa Elena del Tule is a place where the coast and the mountains meet in silence. Mornings awaken with the murmur of the sea and the flight of birds, while afternoons fade beneath fiery skies and the constant echo of the Sierra Madre del Sur. Life here unfolds at a different pace: slower, closer to the land and the sea.
What draws us to Santa Elena is its natural purity. Its open beaches blend with imposing rock formations, dirt paths weave through coastal vegetation, and local communities live in balance with their surroundings. It is a place that resists haste, one that invites contemplation and belonging.
Here, every sunrise is an opportunity to look to the horizon, and every day is lived with the calm of what is essential. Santa Elena does not seek protagonism; it reveals itself with simplicity. And in that honesty—between the power of the ocean and the stillness of the sierra—lies its deepest beauty
