Tucana by EURK: A Visionary Coastal Housing Project in Telchac, Mexico
Tucana by EURK is a modern coastal housing project in Telchac, blending sustainable architecture with minimalist design and serene beachfront living.
Tucana, designed by EURK, is a striking residential project located in Telchac Puerto, Yucatán, Mexico. Positioned just beyond the beachfront, this development reflects the municipality’s rapid transformation into a thriving real estate hub. As Telchac Puerto experiences an influx of investment and growth, Tucana emerges as a response to this evolution, blending contemporary architecture with the essence of coastal living.

A Unique Housing Concept
This project introduces an innovative approach to residential architecture through a collection of six "tiny houses," each designed with an interior width of 3.60 meters and a total construction area of 180 square meters. These homes offer a well-balanced mix of functionality and aesthetics, featuring:
- Four bedrooms, ensuring comfortable living spaces for families and guests.
- A rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico.
- A seamlessly integrated living and dining area, fostering an open and airy ambiance.
- A carefully designed vertical circulation system, allowing for optimal natural light and ventilation.


Blending Architecture with Nature
Tucana’s architectural scale has been meticulously planned, with three levels that maintain a sense of harmony and continuity despite the individual housing units. The choice of sustainable materials ensures durability against the harsh coastal climate while fostering an organic connection with the surrounding environment.
The interiors follow a sober yet tropical aesthetic, designed to evoke a feeling of warmth, serenity, and relaxation. The architecture is not just about form and function but about creating an experience—a tranquil escape where residents can embrace the slow rhythm of coastal life.


A New Landmark in Telchac’s Growth
As Telchac Puerto evolves into a sought-after destination, Tucana stands as a testament to the region’s potential—a modern, sustainable, and thoughtfully designed residential development that redefines seaside living. This project captures the spirit of Telchac’s expansion while maintaining a deep respect for its natural beauty and cultural identity.
