Designing and building with environmental impacts in mind is what informs Green Habitat’s development ethos. Green Habitat’s VITA TULUM project, in particular, is setting a high bar regarding environmental responsibility and integrity, in order to challenge and inspire other architects and developers to be more conscientious about how they approach their developments.
“For many years, real estate developers put out products in a market that moved quickly, fulfilling demand. This, in turn, created a conflict in creating developments to sell, rather than high-quality products that cared for the environment. Today, however, ecology and green technologies for real estate development are trending. Many large and small cities are catching on the trend. Place such as the beach town of Tulum in Mexico’s Riviera Maya are paying more and more attention to building eco-friendly and sustainable projects. Architects, designers and builders are being careful in choosing how they will develop, and how much of their land they will keep untouched. Today’s trend of focusing on green technologies means that the impact of harmful effects from development on the environment is minimized.” (Article from https://www.topmexicorealestate.com/blog/2019/01/green-sustainable-homes-in-tulum/)
VITA TULUM is designed to be a Regenerative Utopia, where we employ different technologies aimed to help care for the planet. We envision a community that makes decisions based on sustainability, cares for a healthy lifestyle, protects local landscapes and ecosystems, and highly values the cultural richness of different places.
By caring for ecosystems and making decisions based on how to reduce carbon emissions as a way to preserve nature, VITA TULUM is consciously committed to finding alternatives that will have a beneficial impact on our planet. Here are some examples of the solutions and technologies that make VITA TULUM a unique and ecologically-sound development.
CHEM-FREE POOL WATER
A natural experience connected to Earth is where you know you will be free from chemicals. Our infinity pool at VITA TULUM is filled with pure water. Its modern water rotation system reduces water waste and keeps it clean.
WATER REUSE (3x)
VITA TULUM has one of the newest treatments for reusing water. By using biodigesters, water can be used up to four times for irrigation.
SOLAR WATER HEATING
An eternal summer through the year with plenty of sunny days is worth taking the most advantage of. For that reason, at VITA TULUM we are using solar water heating.
HYBRID POWER SYSTEMS
To be as energy efficient as possible is a genuine concern we have in order to drive an environmental benefit. At VITA TULUM we use a combination of photovoltaic panels and wind turbines for electricity supply.
URBAN AGRICULTURE
At VITA TULUM, a community garden has been created on the rooftop. Organic vegetables will be able to be harvested and the local fauna, such as bees, will be able to thrive, too.
APIARY
Bees, the most important pollinators in the world, have their own place at VITA TULUM. It is estimated that one-third of the food we consume each day relies on them, and we are doing a great effort in protecting the species.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
A sustainable world depends on how responsible and reliable we are when it comes to waste management. At VITA TULUM, we take great care, from the way trash is collected to how it is recycled and finally removed.
PASSIVE COOLING
We have taken a key step in VITA TULUM by introducing passive cooling within the building design. We have a subterranean pipeline system that allows the cool air from the basement to be released in different rooms.
In addition to employing the various technologies listed above (and more), VITA TULUM takes the preservation of local native trees and animal species very seriously. The protected green areas on the development grounds maintain the natural appeal of the region, while ensuring that multiple bird species are left undisturbed. Aesthetic and construction guidelines have been established to promote a polished yet tasteful environment throughout the community, so that owners and guests truly feel that they are blending with nature.
VITA TULUM and Green Habitat take a triple-bottom line approach to ensure a balance among People, Planet and Profit. If you’re an investor looking to have a positive environmental impact while enjoying a great RO!, then VITA TULUM may be just the right real estate investment for you. Or, if you are someone in the market looking for a second home in the Caribbean, who also wants to be conscientious about their affect on the natural habitat, VITA TULUM’s eco-luxury residences with hotel amenities might be the perfect fit for you. VITA TULUM is slated for completion Fall 2020. Pre-sales are happening now.
