The Jungle Treehouse project emerged as a response to an international architecture competition\nseeking innovative proposals for an adventure tourism hotel complex on Johnny Cay Island in San\nAndr\u00e9s, Colombia. Inspired by the natural harmony of the crab, a protected inhabitant of the island, our\nteam at SALVAJE ARQUITECTURA embarked on this project with the vision of creating a unique\naccommodation experience in balance with the environment. The result of our work has been recognized\nwith an international mention for its focus on sustainability and environmental awareness.<\/p>\n

\nThe project idea is based on the observation of the crab, an animal that harmoniously integrates into the\nisland's ecosystem. The design of the units copys the organic shape of the crab, embracing the existing\npalm trees and creating a direct interaction with nature.<\/p>\n
\nThe units are strategically implanted in the site, minimizing environmental impact. They are located\namong the palm trees, taking advantage of their shade and creating spaces to contemplate the natural\nsurroundings. They are interconnected by a pedestrian path that meanders among the palm trees,\nrespecting the natural topography of the area.<\/p>\n
\nEach unit is configured as a bridge between two palm trees, dividing the space into two zones: public and\nprivate. The public area contains the living room, dining room, and kitchen, and connects to the vertical\ncirculation leading to the cabin entrance on the ground floor. The private area contains the bedroom, a\nspace of tranquility with views of the sea. The bathroom and kitchen are located in the center of the unit,\nacting as a dividing element between the two zones.<\/p>\n
\nThe project is committed to sustainability through the use of natural, biodegradable, and regionally\nsourced materials, such as guadua cane. This material allows the creation of an organic and curvilinear\nstructure, while being resistant and adaptable to the island's tropical climate. The aim is to minimize\nenvironmental impact during the construction and operation of the complex.<\/p>\n
\nThe interior design is characterized by spatial richness and the fluidity of curved lines, both indoors and\noutdoors, creating continuity with nature. The color palette is monochromatic, using the natural colors of\nthe materials. The idea is to create a unique sensory experience for the user, where they feel connected\nto nature and can enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings.<\/p>\n
\nDo you remember the excitement of childhood, of building a tree house or a secret hideaway? Jungle\nTreehouse invites you to rediscover that magic. Each unit is a personal refuge in the treetop, a space\nwhere you can disconnect from the world and connect with your essence.
\nImagine waking up with the sound of waves and sea breeze, surrounded by the lushness of nature.\nEnjoy a bath under the stars or a romantic dinner overlooking the sea. At Jungle Treehouse, every\nmoment is a unique and unforgettable experience.<\/p>\n
\nThe Jungle Treehouse project presents itself as an innovative and sustainable alternative for adventure\ntourism in San Andr\u00e9s. It offers a unique accommodation experience in harmony with nature, respecting\nthe natural environment and using sustainable materials and construction techniques. The international\nrecognition received by this project is a testament to our commitment to environmental awareness and\nthe creation of spaces that harmoniously coexist with nature.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":1887,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-767","proyecto","type-proyecto","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hoteleria"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/proyecto\/767","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/proyecto"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/proyecto"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/proyecto\/767\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=767"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=767"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salvajearquitectura.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=767"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
