RANCHO CUCHUMA WISDOM CENTER

Tecate, Mexico

Developer: Mehrad Nazari

Planning: Rob Quigley, AIA
Landscaping: Chris Drayer
Ecology: Living Designs Group

Rancho Cuchuma is a spiritual development in Tecate, Mexico which has been conceived as a retreat and holiday location with close connection to the health and fitness establishment at Rancho La Puerta. It will provide lodging and fractional ownership possibilities to individuals interested in pursuing spiritual activities in a pristine environment directly under Mt. Cuchuma, a sacred mountain in the area south of San Diego.

Our analysis focused on the potential of this site to support both a spiritual center as well as a commercial real estate development. Dormitory housing and fractional ownership villas will be combined with a spiritual complex that will include meeting halls, yoga and meditation facilities, zen circle, a medicine wheel, vision quest locations under Mt Cuchuma, and caves for private isolation and retreat.
