“Bobo by the Stay” harmonizes nature and life’s vibrant energies within a solid yet fluid architectural design. Nestled on a 10,000-square-meter area, the project includes 1,020 square meters of indoor space, 22 rooms ranging from 20 to 64
square meters, and 2 suites. Its environmentally sensitive approach is evident in the reuse of diabase stones for exterior cladding. These waste stones were cut into brick-sized pieces and arranged in circular motifs, creating dynamic patterns
that shift with sunlight, enhancing the building’s vibrancy and connection to nature. Excess stones were repurposed as gravel for landscaping and pathways, reducing waste and minimizing water usage.
The landscape features local Opuntia Robusta cactus, blending with the circular forms and blue-green tones of the design. The ground floor, built with reinforced concrete, and the steel-framed upper floor employ asymmetrical stacking, evoking a sense of lightness and movement. This layering gives the impression of floating platforms, creating a dynamic flow instead of a static appearance. The minimalist interiors maximize usability, with most rooms oriented toward nature and the sea. Unified earthy tones in ceilings, walls, and floors create cohesion, while artistic holographic lighting at the head of the beds scatters vibrant colors, fostering a positive and passionate atmosphere. The design encourages digital detox by integrating limited technology, promoting mental calmness and tranquility.
Inspired by cultural heritage, the facade reinterprets traditional symmetric and rhythmic motifs in a contemporary style. With its innovative use of materials, environmental sensitivity, and integration with its surroundings, “Bobo by the Stay” offers a unique and harmonious retreat, blending modern architecture with nature and tradition.
