Architecture & Construction in Mérida
PGA provides architecture and construction in Mérida — colonial house restorations and contemporary homes designed and built by architect Roberto Carli.
Building in Mérida
Mérida combines a historic centre of colonial houses with fast-growing northern residential areas. Restoration work in the centre follows heritage guidelines, while new builds focus on heat and comfort.
Every project is led personally by Roberto Carli, founder of PGA, an architecture and construction studio in Tulum and the Riviera Maya. One team carries your project from design through permits to construction.

Building in Mérida, answered
Do you offer both architecture and construction in Mérida?
Yes. PGA designs and builds in Mérida as one integrated studio led by architect Roberto Carli — from site analysis and architectural design to permits, construction management and handover.
Can foreigners build a home in Mérida?
Yes. Foreign owners typically hold property through a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a Mexican company. PGA coordinates legal structuring, Mérida permits and construction so owners can build without living on site.
How much does it cost to build in Mérida?
Cost depends on structure, finish level, access and site conditions, and is quoted per square metre. PGA prepares an itemised construction budget before work starts so the approved figure is the one the project is built to.
