| Featured projects Applying extensive treated bamboo screening<br />
underneath, the otherwise solid metal roofs of the<br />
huts are transformed into a lightweight canopy.<br />
Each of the four metal roofs are supported with<br />
a cluster of twisting structural steel columns that<br />
terminates at the apex with a circular skylight – a<br />
mimicry of the existing perimeter trees that are<br />
reaching towards the sky.<br />
A similar approach is reiterated in the unique<br />
semi-outdoor bathrooms throughout the<br />
entire development. The central skylight with<br />
a wooden trellis veil enlivens the interior of the<br />
bathrooms in the entrance plaza zone, while<br />
preventing rainwater from splashing into the<br />
space. Another example is found in the Amazon<br />
River Quest zone. The open-air wash basin area<br />
