Beni M'Tir , Tunisia
Green Hill Resort
This project is a thermal spa and aesthetic centre for tourists designed according to the spa concept. It integrates architectural and bio-climatic aspects as well as renewable energies. The three planned wood chalets are part of the hotel complex and can be reproduced in the region as a model for eco-tourism or residential purposes. The three chalets are designed to be zero energy.
