Taking Flight

Taking Flight is a creative upcycling project that repurposes retired airplane fuselages to create unique hospitality environments, minimizing the need for new construction and raw materials. Originally designed for travel, the fuselages can be transported to remote locations, allowing adventurous travelers to experience luxury in places where conventional construction is impractical.
With utilities integrated into the traditional cargo hold, Taking Flight offers a seamless plug-and-play approach, easily connecting to renewable energy sources and utilizing a large water reservoir to remain off-grid while reconnecting with nature. The internal structure of the airplane allows for a foundation system using simple helical piles, which significantly reduces the environmental impact compared to traditional foundations, granting eco-conscious travelers access to untouched natural environments like never before.

Cielo Colca Hotel

Cielo Colca is a project that not only redefines how people experience hospitality in extreme natural environments but also sets a new standard for sustainability and environmental respect. The hotel's immersive, floating architecture seamlessly blends into the canyon landscape, with half of the structure rooted on the canyon surface for stability and connection to the earth, while the other half extends outward, suspended above the canyon void, offering guests the sensation of "walking on air" and unparalleled panoramic views. Committed to preserving the local ecosystem, Cielo Colca employs eco-friendly practices, including renewable energy and water recycling systems, while also supporting the local community by hiring artisans and workers to promote employment and strengthen the regional economy. This combination of visionary architecture, ecological commitment, and cultural connection makes Cielo Colca a unique jewel in the global hotel landscape.

H2O Loop

H2Oloop is a shower system design that allows cold water, which would otherwise be wasted while waiting for hot water in the pre-shower phase, to flow to a storage area and wait for the hot water to finish heating before being fused at a constant temperature. The interface also allows users who are not sensitive to temperature to set the temperature of the water, and visualize the current temperature of the water, as well as the current state of the water heating, thus lowering the risk of scald injuries.experience luxury in places where conventional construction is impractical.
