PALAFITO VIP
Two blocks superimposed on a floating base, resembling the sail of a raft, give shape to the “Palafito VIP”, which is presented as an option for tourists looking for a more exclusive experience of the Bacalar Lagoon. It brings together all the characteristics of a project that seeks excellence and the attraction of demanding travelers looking for adventure in nature, but with the comfort and luxury of contemporary architecture.
With pure geometry, almost in its minimum expression, our proposal offers the creation of “thresholds” that look towards the lagoon and the jungle, giving the greatest prominence to nature itself. Architecture becomes the medium where we want the inhabitant to experience the visuals and the landscapes.
A clean and transparent geometry with pyramidal shapes at the foot of the lagoon, the Twin Bungalows is shown as a landmark in the landscape that is elegant and subtle, with a timeless architecture, which aims to establish itself permanently as a high-demand accommodation for young travelers from all over the world.
