Punta Pite is a 27 acre piece of land that follows the contours of a bay between Zapallar and Papudo, two sea towns located north of Santaigo in Chile.

A residential development built here in 2006 takes its name from the place and is laid out in a way that surrenders to the power of the ocean.

It was developed as a series of parts connected by a walking path, one section of which seems to be sculpted out of the existing cliffs, while the other part passes through a restored creek that are meant to create one spatial experience of the whole site.
