Martin Gomez: Punta del Este. Beach Houses

Stunning South American design--the concept behind Punta del Este city's brand.

It's not common for a single course of action and thought to manage to make a mark on a city and even less common is that the same person can exert some influence on it. However, this is the case of Punta del Este and the architect Martin Gomez.

Obsessed with integrating his work into the context of the landscape in which it is immersed, the work of Martin Gomez is more than just simple commissions. It is a complex process of overlapping the tasks of the architect, interior designer, landscape architect and graphic designer.

His works are part of an originality that primarily use natural resources in direct contact with their environment. The most striking impact of his proposal is the ability to show over time a common thread in all projects, regardless of the type, scale, context and materiality.
