The W Resort is to be located at Mahé Island, facing the Intendance beach, known for its white sand, surrounding jungle and rocky hills.
Rather than simulating traditional local architecture, we proposed the concept of “living in nature”.
At the W Resort, nature is an integral part of architecture. Its vitality, indeterminacy and movement are declined into the environment of the resort at multiples scales: from that of the masterplan to a single suite.
