Pousada El Jardin de la Bonita
Bahia Formosa / Brasil / 2022
The Pousada ‘El Jardin de la Bonita’ rises on a natural promontory, 50 meters high on the Atlantic coast, creating a suggestive combination of architecture and landscape. The architectural approach, characterized by minimalist design and environmental respect, harmoniously integrates with the hinterland, avoiding excessive building height to preserve the natural aspect of the coast.
The modular arrangement of the buildings, although repetitive to simplify construction, precisely adapts to the irregular terrain, ensuring orderly and functional distribution. The choice to keep the main facade externally visible, while the other buildings blend with the surrounding vegetation, creates an interesting dialogue between architecture and landscape.
The central pool, the focal element of the complex, has been strategically positioned to offer spectacular views from all rooms and villas, accentuating the connection with the ocean and the surrounding landscape. The island lounges and event space integrated into the pool contribute to creating a welcoming and inviting environment for guests.
The main block, housing the main services such as reception and dining area, is characterized by minimal coverings open on two sides, creating a sense of lightness and openness. The suspended walkway that connects the various areas of the complex not only serves a practical function but also becomes a distinctive architectural element, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the inner garden and the ocean.
The rooms, with their custom masonry furnishings, represent an elegant fusion of contemporary design and local tradition. The windows, protected by sliding wooden panels, allow the regulation of natural light and enjoyment of views without compromising guest privacy.
In the garden, the two twin two-story villas and the single-story villa maintain the same clean and simple architectural language as the rest of the complex, creating visual harmony and stylistic continuity. The Pousada ‘El Jardin de la Bonita’ stands out as an example of architecture that seamlessly integrates with its environment, offering guests a unique and unforgettable experience.
