Spend the night in a glass treehouse at Bio Habitat Hotel

Bio Habitat Hotel 7 Talk Carpet

Hotels aren’t just a place for staying the night. The hotel’s design will enhance the guest’s experience, allowing them to observe the local environment closely. We enjoyed staying in a contemporary glass treehouse that seamlessly blends into the atmosphere on our recent journey to Colombia. Bio Habitat Hotel is specially designed to allow visitors to immerse themselves in Colombia’s nature.

The dense forests of the Pereira mountains host the Bio Habitat Hotel. The property spreads across 16,000 square meters, providing a total of 12 habitats ready to host curious guests. The designers made sure that each glass treehouse perfectly blends into the environment.

BIO DESIGN

The Bio Habitat Hotel features a unique architectural approach, which the main idea is to avoid disrupting the environment. Each glass treehouse features a bio-design that blends into the surrounding. The architects grabbed inspiration from the natural colors, shapes, materials, and textures in the surroundings to design the structure. They take advantage of nature’s powers to eliminate the need for modern appliances.

In addition, guest rooms don’t have air conditioning systems and rely solely on passive design. The passive design takes advantage of the local climate to maintain the right temperature. The buildings are thin rocks that release heat and high ceilings to allow air circulation. The roof has rich foliage, allowing for proper drainage during heavy rainfall.

THE DESIGN

As soon as we stepped in, we felt like the glass treehouse created a closer bond with nature. The floor-to-ceiling glass walls provide a magnificent sight over the lush Colombina forests. Each detail perfectly fits in the concept of creating a bio habitat.

The interiors allow guests to develop an intimate relationship with nature. We love how they managed to execute sustainable design with a contemporary vibe. The furnishings are modern and stylish yet manage to fit the overall idea. The small terrace provides a peaceful spot for observing the forest. The stone floors add a touch of visual interest while being cohesive with the environment. Butterflies will land on your hand, allowing you to establish a more intimate relationship with flora and fauna in the Colombina forest.

The furniture provides a comfortable and luxurious experience after exploring the beauty of Colombia’s mountains. The furnishings and finishes are sustainable. Therefore, the treehouses are ideal for adventurous travelers willing to explore the forest but still access modern amenities and luxury. 

The whole property provides utmost relaxation and peace, and walking around is an experience on its own. The swing chair provides a comfy spot, allowing you to take some time for yourself and indulge in reflective thinking.

The hotel lobby follows the connection with nature while keeping the contemporary spirit. The large wooden trunk serves as a coffee table introducing an organic feel. Designers completed the rustic trunk with a leather Chesterfield sofa to create a comfy and sophisticated seating area for welcoming guests. The cowhide rug fits the overall mood, introducing an eccentric vibe.

It is no secret that Paris has been the capital of fashion since the seventeenth century. The city has been the playground for prestigious designers and couture brands like Chanel, Dior, and Saint Laurent. Today the Parisian style is not only an aesthetic choice but a philosophy. It embraces elegance, timelessness, and slow responsible fashion. The focus is on the cut and the quality of the materials. No fluff or excessiveness with a less is more approach. And what better way to understand Parisian fashion than to visit a museum dedicated to it.

For more than 70 years, the house has been crafting magical couture pieces in their atelier at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris. Christian Dior has made this location a legendary address since the first collection in 1947. Behind its new flagship, the House of Dior inaugurates a permanent exhibition in an extraordinary gallery, independently of its boutique. Mr. Dior wanted to be an architect; the building and the museum pay him a beautiful tribute today.

The staging is astonishing. A circular staircase at the entrance showcases 452 dresses and 1,422 accessories, all 3D printed. Bags, shoes, perfumes, and small objects: so many testimonies of the Dior style materialized to elaborate this Diorama.
