THE TURTLE BUNGALOW
The Turtle Bungalow, an innovative experiential accommodation product, was designed to revolutionize the hospitality industry. Serving as both a mobile marketing tool and a fully functional hotel room, it offers guests an unforgettable experience while enticing potential property buyers. Designed to blend seamlessly with its aquatic surroundings, the sleek and modern bungalow moves around the island, offering a fresh perspective on the current and future context.
Sustainability and contextual sensitivity were key considerations in its design, ensuring minimal impact on the site while using sustainable materials. The bungalow is constructed off-site using prefabricated mass timber, reducing its carbon footprint. It also incorporates self-sustaining features such as solar panels, a desalination plant, and environmentally friendly sewage treatment. Spread across two floors, it provides ample space for relaxation, complete with a rooftop bar, hot tub, and a slide into the water.
The Turtle Bungalow concept uses a hull as its base, with a flexible design that can be adapted to suit any hospitality project. Its adaptable style makes it an ideal marketing tool for developments near calm island waters, serving as both a show house and promotional asset for potential buyers.
