THE TURTLE BUNGALOW
The Turtle Bungalow, an innovative experiential accommodation project, is set to revolutionize the hospitality industry. It serves as a mobile marketing tool and fully functional hotel room, offering guests an unforgettable experience and enticing potential property buyers. Designed to blend seamlessly with its aquatic surroundings, the sleek and modern bungalow moves around the island, providing a new perspective of the current and future context.
Sustainability and contextual sensitivity were key considerations in its design, with minimal impact on the site and the use of sustainable materials. The bungalow is constructed off-site using prefabricated mass timber, ensuring a low carbon footprint, and incorporates self-sustainable features such as solar panels, a desalination plant, and environmentally friendly sewage treatment. Spread across two floors, it offers ample space for relaxation and features a rooftop bar, hot tub, and a slide into the water.
