Awakening

The inspiration for this project came from the search for a deeper connection with nature and the sensory experience it provides. In a world moving towards an increasingly technological future, it is crucial not to lose our bond with nature—especially with the Amazon, the heart of the world.

This project integrates architecture with the ecosystem, using sustainable materials like bamboo to minimize environmental impact and promote both sensory immersion and landscape preservation.
