| Although today’s market seems to be endlessly diverse, two main tendencies can be extracted: - Responsible : for sustainable ways of traveling, ethical contacts, ‘green’ experiences. - Extreme : for high-end desires, looking for superlatives and extreme experiences. Instead of increasing the variety of the offer without strategy, which would have an even more devastating effect, the Mayan Riviera has now to adapt its property market by converting 100% of it into: -33% densified resorts in a sustainable way for the ‘Responsible’ -33% converted resorts into cities extensions for the resorts workers
-33% ground going back to ‘virgin’, leaving the ‘Extreme’ on offshore floating resorts, underwater or flying ones The densified and converted resorts will keep the urban logic of a linear city, while achieving a concentration around the existing cities. The whole ensemble creates a global unique linear city with multiple ‘nodes’.
