Chapman Taylor creates Hon Thi Eco-Islands masterplan for eastern Vietnam
Chapman Taylor has masterplanned a 285-hectare eco-resort based across four islands on Vietnam’s eastern coast.
The Hon Thi Eco Islands masterplan will create a beautiful and sustainable eco-tourism destination which will complement and protect the stunning local environment.
Spread across Hon Thi and three smaller islands in the picturesque Nha Phu Bay, the scheme will sensitively integrate with the landscape, which includes pristine beaches, clear blue waters and tropical hillside vegetation.
Alongside an organic agricultural area, marine research and innovation facilities and centres for turtle and coral conservation, the development will include a market town offering varied retail, F&B and entertainment options, a 300-bed hotel, 200 serviced apartments, 100 hillside bungalows, a family resort and a luxury resort.
Chapman Taylor’s masterplan envisages a phased construction using locally sourced materials and minimal impact on the site.
The development, the architecture for which draws design inspiration from the geometry of the nets of local fishermen, will be powered by renewable energy sources and environmental sustainability will be at its heart - delivering the first zero-waste eco-island in South-East Asia.
