| Summary: | 4500 square meters resort is a multiple of lodging and leisure buildings with overwater villas as its
specialty. It is located on Karang Beras Island, a gently sloped untouched island filled and surrounded
by potential natural features within Kepulauan Seribu. The consumer of this resort is middle high
income both abroad and local tourists. A lot of activities accommodated on and around the island
including lodging, water recreation, island exploration, and mangrove nursery.
"Reflecterende" symbolizes the reflection of beauty of the Kepulauan Seribu as well as selfreflection.
The concept of a soul-refreshing resort is manifested through user’s sequence: welcoming
tourists by the composition of curvilinear overwater villas; continued by walking on a wooden deck
through a lush mangroves forest that provide relaxing stimulus; then tourists are given the freedom to
choose to explore further into the hearts and other side of the island or walk on other wooden decks
which connects the island to the overwater villas.
To make the resort more refreshing, it is designed with a facade and space configuration that bring
tourists closer to nature. Buildings appear simple with the dominance of horizontal elements and the
use of natural materials. Each building has wide opening and oriented to the lagoon and sea view to
capture the relaxing atmosphere. Especially for overwater villas, tourist won’t merely feel closer to
nature by visual stimulus, but also physically attached to the engaging sea. This process is initiated by
configuring villa’s floor level. The highest elevation lies in the entrance of the villa and then it goes
down, closer to sea level until finally the tourists have the opportunity to touch and enjoy the beauty
of the biotic components underwater. |
