These ten prefab hotel suites, docked on a marine reserve near Avignon, France, are wrapped in timber screens that allow them to blend into the beautiful surroundings. Atelier Lavit designed the floating structures – which were constructed off-site and reconstructed on-site over a period of three months – with large skylights and wraparound porches so that visitors can get truly immersed in nature. Each of the units of this sustainable getaway is connected to the mainland via a wooden ramp. The rooms are either circular or square-shaped and built using natural paneled wood . The team designed the prefab suites to be easily transported and assembled on-site with reduced installation costs and low environmental impact.
