Eco-Friendly Construction
Our lodge is built not just on the land, but with it. We believe in an architecture that respects the local ecology, culture, and climate. Our construction practices are a testament to this philosophy, blending traditional wisdom with modern sustainable innovations.
Our Guiding Principles
- Minimizing the carbon footprint by sourcing materials locally.
- Designing for natural light and cross-ventilation to reduce energy consumption.
- Reviving and adapting traditional building techniques for modern comfort.
- Creating structures that are biodegradable and have a low environmental impact.
- Prioritizing the health and well-being of our guests and the planet.
The Elements of Our Buildings
Mud (Cob & Adobe)
The primary building material, providing excellent thermal insulation, keeping the interiors cool in summer and warm in winter.
Bamboo
A fast-growing, renewable resource used for structural elements and roofing.
Local Stone
Used for foundations and flooring, sourced from nearby quarries to reduce transport emissions.
Reclaimed Wood
Used for doors, windows, and furniture, giving a second life to old timber.
Natural Plasters & Finishes
Using lime, clay, and cow dung for breathable, non-toxic wall finishes.
