Design Concept:
The fundamental design concept is inspired by the fluid patterns and colors of the Indian
Ocean. Organic curves and curvilinear features resemble waves, sea animals, and other natural
patterns.
Villas have sweeping horizontal lines that open spectacular water views. The primary vascular
spine is a serpentine wood and stone jetty, with branching docks connecting the overwater
villa clusters.
The fluid forms continue in the main arrivals pavilion, which includes a stunning overhanging
wood and steel spiral like a conch shell. Pockets of water and foliage are interspersed
throughout to emphasize the maritime feel.
