Another great opportunity. APR’s next award Urban Design & Architecture Design Awards 2019 is open for Registration. Don’t miss the chance, its a huge platform for architects.
This boutique design complex is part of our private collection design and is located in Mexico City, on a prime private estate. This half hectare golf complex is surrounded by a concrete jungle and works perfectly as a buffer and a small lung to its immediate surroundings. Considering Mexico City is one of the most polluted cities in the world, this area will help reduce that feeling and will serve perfect fo r families and friends of all ages and skill levels to play together or individually. The course features seven tee boxes spanning up to 80 yards in distance, one unique fragmented green with multiple flag positions and multiple hazards. Distinct shot values and angles, in tandem with the serene environment, will create a challenging, yet relaxing experience for all to enjoy during the day or during the night.
The idea behind “Boutique golf” was to create a unique space which the guests can connect with the natural elements whilst they enjoy one of the best private boutique golf complexes in the world. This area will encourage players to expand beyond the mental and physical aspects of the game and connect on a spiritual, emotional and environmental level. Guests are encouraged to play barefoot and connect with nature.
The golf complex is played on multi-modal, depending on the environment you want to generate and the mood of each player. In the end it is designed to play in any format you choose, in 90 minutes maximum.
The construction will begin in June 2019 and will take 3 months to build and 3 months to establish the grass. The type of grass on a golf course is very important and this won’t be an exception. Certified Rye Grass will be placed on fairway, roughs and tees whilst on greens we will import Pure Distinction seed, a fantastic world class Bent Grass.
Our scope of work is to create the best and most original private home design for a high-profile client. Execute the design and deliver a turn key operation to our client through our supervision, quality control and project management services. The grass sculpture by Pizá Golf offers guests the perfect environment to enjoy a game of golf with individual wellness at the forefront and a touch of evening and social night life.
This concept is a multi-model design inspired by nature and social gatherings. We can play multi model games and challenge ourselves as easy and as hard as we feel like it. At the end, enjoy the night setting with “state of the art” removable lighting and a fire pit in the middle of the golf complex for guests to enjoy the evening.
