resort design: estrella del mar
Resort design revolves around the consideration of various factors ranging from the natural environment and context of the site to the hierarchy of space and accessibility. The initial step of the process is site planning, which requires research and analysis of the conditions, geography, and topography of the site, as well as elements found on the site and the surrounding contextual components. It is essential the design of the site, from interior and exterior to landscape, resonate with the overall context and effortlessly amalgamate with the environment to elevate the natural beauty of the location. Layout plays a key role in this by defining the hierarchy of spaces, connecting the indoors and out, providing smooth transitions from one space to another, and facilitating people in and around the site. Resorts depend on landscape design specifically to create environments throughout the resort that unify the site.
One example of resort design created by our team is Estrella Del Mar. Estrella Del Mar is a 900-acre resort community located in Mazatlán, Mexico with breathtaking ocean views, luxury amenities, and beach front condos and hotels. This private resort has something for everyone from a health and wellness area, re-imagined 18-hole competition golf course, and trail network to spa villas, a sea turtle sanctuary, and boardwalk. Whether getting active at the health and wellness area or relaxing at the spa villas, the array of amenities at Estrella Del Mar allows residents and visitors to enjoy the day their way.
