DESIGN

• AKALANI is an exclusive residential development located in the private subdivision Tres Cañadas in AJIJIC, Magical Town of Jalisco.
• AKALANI means ‘place of boats’ in Nahuatl.
• EXTEA ARCHITECTS is the firm in charge of designing and carrying out this project. With more than 30 years of experience creating high-level residences, it has managed to reinterpret the beauty and essence of the architecture of our Mexican towns, in perfect harmony with the requirements of modern life, thus achieving a unique development.
• VIEWS, because of its location on the summit of an incredible mountain, it enjoys the most spectacular views of Lake Chapala. There is nothing that can compare to it.
• TRANQUILITY, the sensation of freedom, security, and peace that comes from being in the countryside is incomparable.
• EXCLUSIVITY, only 19 residences, with nine different designs and the possibility of customization according to the guidelines of the architectural language of the project, guarantee a unique level of exclusivity; and everything is built on an average plot of more than 15,000 square meters.

 ECOLOGICAL

• ZERO CARBON EMISSIONS Akalani is free of gas. Gas installations and equipment were removed, so in addition to the ecological theme, we guarantee that there are no possibilities for leaks and explosions for all residents.
• SOLAR ELECTRICITY GENERATION. All houses will have the latest generation of photovoltaic panels.
• WASTEWATER TREATMENT Rainwater is separated from sewage water. The rainwater is channeled to natural channels to reach the lake and sewage water is treated in individual biodigesters in each house, thus eliminating contaminating systems of the subsoil.
• SOLAR HEATERS Each residence will have a solar calculator for independent use in their bathrooms, thus being able to use the sun and save on private energy.
• PERMEABLE SURFACES The cobbled streets and the floors of the external patios have been selected in this way to allow rainwater to return to the subsoil naturally.
• ENDEMIC GARDENING The species of plants in the gardens have been selected with species that adapt perfectly to the climate and require little water and maintenance.
