Bodu Resort
Hotel for CSD DESIGN
Bodu Resort project was transformed from the combination of three old buildings. The designers started from respecting the original design concept and allowed the building to hide into nature with an extended posture. In the selection of materials, they used local materials to show the local sense of the architectural space with national colors. The whole building space used teak wood and old elm wood as the main structure, as well as the brick and stone bamboo weaving mechanism commonly used in local villages, to echo the regional culture.

Unique Properties
Because it is located opposite a rubber forest and a tropical rain forest, the designer hopes that the whole building can reach out and really extend into the nature. The suspended "glass box" is such a carrier, which is also an excellent punch in place for resort hotels. The designer takes it as the ultimate goal, and the harmonious and symbiotic relationship between the hotel and rubber forest and tropical rain forest can be seen finally.

Production Technology
In terms of material selection, the designer hopes that each project can draw on local materials. The project needs to seek contact with local color and texture, and show the local feeling of architectural space with national color.
Design Challenge
The benign interaction among architecture, interior and nature is the most important and the most difficult in the whole design work.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2017 in Xishuangbanna and finished in December 2019 in Xishuangbanna.
Operation Flow
This building space uses teak and old elm as the main structure, as well as the brick and stone bamboo weaving mechanism commonly used in local villages to echo the regional culture.
Research
Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna is a special place. First, it is close to the border. Second, it has warm and pure ethnic customs. Therefore, the designer also hopes that the hotel can reflect more contemporary in this strong regional situation, so this case is different from other projects.
Inspiration
The hotel is located on a cliff 40 meters away from the ground, embracing thousands of mu of forest in Xishuangbanna, enjoying the mild and humid climate of Southeast Asia and containing rich and diverse ethnic customs. Although the designer has profound experience in hotel design before, how to let people enjoy the unique experience brought by space is his eternal thinking and theme.
