NeEco Village Resort
NeEco Village Resort
The 7.5 hectare NeEco Village is located in Binh Hung Island, Khanh Hoa province. The main flora of the island is the Neem tree, which has environmental benefits such as flood control; reducing soil erosion and is also a source of good timber.
Neem + Ecological + Village = NeEco Village. The overall design concept is inspired from the symbol image, ecological aspects and the physical structure of the Neem tree. We have tried to propose a sensitive master plan and an architectural typology which allows all built-forms to integrate with the site.
The project consists of 18 bungalows in various types, a restaurant as well as other public facilities. The bungalows were constructed of local materials, especially the neem timber and designed to sensibly respond to the landscape. The interior space enjoys panoramic views to the ocean and the landscape, the boundary between the interior and exterior is blurred. The structures become parts of the neem tree forest and also create a unique sense of place with the beautiful landscape and ocean.
The NeEco Village has achieved an Honorable Awards in the FuturArc Prize 2011.
