Term: 2/2

Studio Teachers:

Resort is a place that is frequented for holidays or recreation or for a particular purpose. People who are tired with their everyday life choose a resort for refreshment and relaxation for a time being.

In the studio, the project was given in order to explore climate, environment, functions while maintaining the pshychology of the guests in mind. The site was far away from the busy city life in order to provide the guests with a scenic view of lake Pakhitiki and a quiet hideout.

Harbored in the serene green hillocks of tea plantations in northeast Bangladesh, while designing, it was tried not to harm the nature as much as possible. The public area with reception and adjacent diner was placed after the entrance of the site surrounding a shallow water body. The cottages were in the last end of the site beside the lake. This resort allows the guests relish the essence of living within nature.
