Spanning 10 hectares, the government-funded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/masterplans-and-urban-revitalization\/\"><strong>masterplan<\/strong> <\/a>reimagines the annual fairgrounds of the region through a biophilic and parametric design lens, featuring a 1,000-seat arena, stream-like pedestrian pathways, and a constellation of circular structures. From ceiba-lined civic squares to skate parks and origami-roofed courts, the project softens the rigid edges of the site with a network of arcs and tangent connections, inviting fluid movement and a non-hierarchical experience through space.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All structures are finished in pale surfaces that reflect sunlight and mitigate heat, while slender olive-green <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/steel\/\"><strong>metal<\/strong><\/a> columns and undulating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/wood-and-timber-architecture\/\"><strong>timber<\/strong><\/a> details echo the surrounding forest.

This event evolved beyond its temporary roots to include concerts, rides, craft markets, and civic gatherings. Rather than proposing isolated buildings, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aidia-studio.com\/\"><strong>London- and Mexico-based<\/strong><\/a> AIDIA STUDIO envisioned a coherent public realm that could host both everyday activities and large-scale festivities. A trapezoidal site measuring 200 by 400 meters, with only one formal entry point, posed initial access challenges. The architects addressed this by developing a road circuit that loops around the park, embedding running and cycling tracks into its perimeter, and distributing access to various venues from multiple points.<\/p>\n<p>all materials used in the plazas and buildings harmonize with the area\u2019s natural limestone<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">a biophilic parkland of arenas, pavilions, and civic spaces<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the core of the masterplan is a spatial language of circles and arcs, where each venue, from the retail pavilions to sports facilities, adopts a circular footprint and connects to others via tangent curves. This layout, driven by parametric tools and biophilic principles, allows the park to feel like a continuous terrain. The centerpiece is a 1,000-person arena that emerges as a sculptural terminus to the journey through the park. Along the way, visitors encounter spaces like the civic square framed by eleven ancestral ceiba trees, a multipurpose pavilion, a skate park, playgrounds, calisthenics areas, and covered basketball courts whose wide-span roofs draw from origami forms.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Crucially, the low density and modular construction strategy of Parque Quintana Roo were intentional, aiming to preserve green cover and to ensure cost-effective implementation. AIDIA STUDIO\u2019s bottom-up approach prioritized the user\u2019s experience of nature: whether cycling under a canopy of trees, discovering civic life at the heart of the ceiba grove, or skating through sun-dappled clearings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>various building typologies were developed tailored to the specific functions of the buildings<\/p>\n<p>tiled hyperbolic paraboloid roofs offer protection against heavy rainfall<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>instead of solid facades, the buildings use brick screens and open walls<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>retail shops activate the park<\/p>\n<p>lightweight metal frameworks introduce a playful twist<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>encouraging cross-ventilation and maintaining a dialogue with the outdoors<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>olive-green columns and undulating wooden accents integrate with the surrounding forest<\/p>\n<p>a distinctive roof inspired by origami folds tops the basketball courts<\/p>\n<p>each building focuses on the user\u2019s experience of nature within the park<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name:<\/strong>\u00a0Parque Quintana Roo<br \/>\n<strong>architect:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aidia-studio.com\/\">AIDIA STUDIO<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/aidiastudio\/\">@aidiastudio<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico<\/p>\n<p><strong>plot area:<\/strong> 214,471.67 square meters<br \/>\n<strong>construction area:<\/strong> 39,645.78 square meters<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>client:<\/strong> SEDATU <br \/>\n<strong>lead architects:<\/strong> Rolando Rodriguez Leal, Natalia Wrzask <br \/>\n<strong>project coordination:<\/strong> Jos\u00e9 Luis Mul\u00e1s <br \/>\n<strong>project team:<\/strong> Mariano Gonz\u00e1lez, Nitze Maga\u00f1a, Aranzaz\u00fa S\u00e1nchez, Mauricio Santiba\u00f1ez, Cecilia Sim\u00f3n, Emilio V\u00e1squez, Rodrigo Wulf <br \/>\n<strong>structural engineering:<\/strong> Project &amp; Calc <br \/>\n<strong>photographer:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/andrescedillo.com\/\">Andr\u00e9s Cedillo<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pavelin\/\">@pavelin<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>designboom has received this project from our\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers-submit\"><em>DIY submissions<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their own work for publication. see more project submissions from our readers\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/readers\/\"><em>here.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>edited by: thomai tsimpou | designboom<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/biophilic-parametric-structures-aidia-studio-civic-park-mexican-jungle-parque-quintana-roo-06-06-2025\/\">biophilic parametric structures by aidia studio shape civic park in mexican jungle<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>aidia studio brings parametric structures to mexican jungle \u00a0 Tucked into the subtropical jungle of Chetumal, Mexico, Parque Quintana Roo by AIDIA STUDIO transforms a once seasonal fairground into a year-round civic landscape for sports, &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[142],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.7 -
