"LIFE TREE, Tulum" PUBLISHED BY SLEEPER!
MEXICO
We would like to give a big thank to the “SLEEPER” Magazine for publishing our project “Life Tree by DNA Barcelona Architects”
The “Life Tree” in Tulum was born from the clients desire to generate a new experience. From a conceptual point of view, in DNA we always aim towards the fusion between art and technology and in this case, we sought the fusion between nature and architecture, which generates the word, as we call it in DNA, “Archi-Nature”. In this way, we take inspiration from the bird’s nests, and from them our design process in DNA begins.
This project was more about embracing nature and the jungle in Tulum, rather than the ocean, therefore an iconic project was generated from the desire to create a tree of life, with a center from which everything revolves around, and where ten nests structures appear. the experience is enhanced by wandering through the place through walkways, climbing from a walkway to the top of the trees and then you are in your own nest. In the end, today`s tourism has to be more oriented to nature and how to live those unique experiences, so that you return home nourished by exceptional experiences.
