BACKGROUND INFORMATION

We were hired by a North American architectural company to create a triple-unit terrace design for a client in Turks and Caicos Island. The design needed to be suitable for the tropical climate and able to withstand hurricanes.

DESIGN INFORMATION

We created a flexible short-let apartment design consisting of a triple-unit terrace building, with each unit containing one bedroom. The aim was to provide a comfortable experience for tourists visiting the island.

MATERIALS

To ensure durability and protection against the harsh tropical climate, we opted for sandcrete blocks for the walls, coated with cement plaster and finished with stucco paints. For the floors, we used wood-colored tiles, while the roof was designed with asphalt roof-top cladding on reinforced concrete roof walls to repel water.
