Hidden within a dense coastal forest on a remote stretch of tropical shoreline, this concept imagines a retreat slowly revealed like a forgotten city rediscovered. Inspired by the idea of ancient ruins swallowed by nature, the design unfolds as a series of moments where architecture and landscape blend and the forest gently reclaims the built environment. The resort is not introduced all at once. Instead, it emerges in fragments through the trees, a stone wall here a pathway there a glimpse of water. Each space is designed to feel discovered rather than imposed. This narrative of unveiling underpins the experience creating a sense of exploration nostalgia and wonder throughout. The masterplan is structured around this idea of contrast. The western side is lively and social with restaurants pools and a central town square that echoes the energy of a village marketplace. Moving eastward the rhythm shifts to quiet forest river villas and a spa dedicated to rest and reflection. This duality allows guests to both connect and retreat to energise and unwind. With over 300 keys spanning forest suites, beachfront villas and layered hotel accommodation the project is grounded in sensitivity to its environment. Architecture is fragmented woven between trees and elevated to protect the forest floor. Natural light views and ventilation are prioritised while back of house functions remain discreet and efficient. What results is not a resort imposed on a site but one drawn from it, a place that feels unearthed as if it has always been there slowly reawakening beneath the canopy.
