Strategic Infrastructure Planning - under Clustering / Blocks concept
Optimizing Resources for Sustainable Development
Given the extensive size of the land, about 100,000 square meters, managing the infrastructure costs efficiently to ensure the total investment cost per bungalow remains acceptable involves several strategic considerations:
1. Phased Development
In our Master Plan development approach, we build infrastructure incrementally as needed. This strategy helps in distributing the costs over time and mitigates the risk of overinvestment in the initial stages. Moving forward, we plan also to develop a clustering/block concept, specifically integrating bungalows infrastructures with the surrounding forest and agricultural areas.
2. Prioritize Essential Infrastructure
Focus on the essential infrastructure needed to get the resort operational. This includes roads, water supply, and basic energy needs.
3. Sustainable Practices
Utilize sustainable and eco-friendly building techniques which can offer long-term savings. For example, using solar panels reduces dependency on external power sources, and effective water management systems can minimize water usage costs.
4. Local Materials and Labor
Use locally sourced materials and labor which can significantly reduce costs.
5. Modular and Prefabricated Construction
Consider using modular or prefabricated buildings for the bungalows, or other solutions.
6. Integration with Nature ,agriculture and landscaping
Instead of extensive landscaping, integrate the natural landscape into the resort’s design. This reduces the need for costly alterations to the land and maintains the natural beauty of the area. We will try transfer hotel investment costs to agriculture namely part of roads.
7. Technology and Innovation Equipment
Employ modern technologies for planning and construction.

MAIN AREAS AND MASTER PLAN
The Resort does not exceed 10,000 m² of construction, and it is also important to recognize that the landscaping area remains significant. This highlights the need for balancing with agriculture and the architectural proposal, to continually adjust metrics and development of the master plan of the Resort.
