This project is situated in the framework of the “Las Teresitas” beach
redevelopment in Santa Cruz Tenerife. Following a competition won by Dominique
Perrault in 2000, the redevelopment of Teresitas is based upon the primordial
theme to respect the “natural” image and to offer a different kind of “seaside”
resort where no massive constructions are situated on the beachfront.
