We are a couple who are originally from New York working in the production and design industry. Hooked on surf and yoga, we started to vacation in Nosara in 2005 and every time, our trips kept getting long and longer. We had 2 kids and watched Nosara develop into a beautiful family community where we wanted to spend more time to raise them. So we decided to take the plunge and move to Nosara full time. We wanted to create a place where families and friends can stay, where you feel safe and relaxed, where you can live a healthy lifestyle, and where kids can run free. NALU was born! We built 3 villas and a studio with our friend and architect Benjamin Garcia Saxe which has grown into a well known community space as well as a favorite place to reside for many guests in Nosara. Now we want to continue working together with Studio Saxe and build the next phase of our vision. We want to build designer private residences in a perfect location that has both a view of the ocean and a walk to the beach, restaurants, & shops! SANTA TERESA CR

Studio Saxe is a Costa Rica - London design practice founded by Benjamin Garcia Saxe in 2004. His aim was to explore our relationship with the natural environment through architecture. Founded on the belief that buildings must connect to their landscape – whether a tropical paradise or a concrete jungle. Benjamin moved to London to work for the world-renowned Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, drawn in part by their commitment to sustainable and socially aware design. During his time working there, Benjamin was responsible for the design of World Trade Center Tower 3 in NYC, a high end development for the Prince of Monaco in Montecarlo and a range of residential and office towers across the Middle East and Asia. Studio Saxe has now over 40 projects in Latin America and around the world. The work in Costa Rica mostly consists of the development of tropical homes and hotels.
