Project Overview: Construction of luxury resort tents at Four Seasons Tented Camp
Project luxury resort tent at Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle is an iconic piece of eco-resort architecture. The project uses tensile membrane structural solutions to create luxurious tented villas that meet the most stringent standards for user experience while adhering to a low-impact construction philosophy to preserve the pristine ecosystem.
- Investor: Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle
- Design unit: Architect Bill Bensley
- Category: Luxury Tented Villas
- Structure: Multilayer tensile membrane structure on steel frame system
- Main materials: High quality PVDF/PTFE stretch film, steel frame, interior finishing materials
- Location: Chiang Rai, Thailand
Technical Requirements Analysis & Project Context
The project is located in an isolated location in the Golden Triangle area, requiring an architectural solution capable of simultaneously addressing environmental, logistical and 5-star resort standard challenges:
- Preservation of primary ecosystems: The primary technical requirement was that the construction method should have minimal impact on the existing forest environment, avoiding large-scale leveling, excavation and reinforced concrete construction.
- Logistics and Transportation Challenges: Transporting construction materials and equipment to a remote location with complex terrain requires lightweight material solutions and flexible construction methods.
- Sustainable structure in tropical climate: The structure must be highly resistant to tropical humid climate conditions, including high humidity, heavy rain, strong solar radiation and insects.
- High-class amenities: Although in tent form, each resort unit must provide full amenities, privacy and comfort equivalent to a 5-star villa.
Technical Solutions and Implementation Process
To meet the above specific requirements, tensile membrane architectural solutions have been selected as the main technology, combined with sustainable construction methods.
Modular Structure and Low Impact Construction Solutions
To solve the logistical and environmental problems, the technical solution is to use prefabricated modular structures. The entire steel frame system and the tensile membrane layers are precisely manufactured at the factory. This helps to minimize heavy construction activities (concrete pouring, welding and cutting) at the construction site, allowing for manual erection and lightweight equipment, preserving the integrity of the landscape.
Multilayer Tensile Membrane Roofing System
Each tent uses a complex multi-layer roofing system. The outer layer is a high-performance PVDF or PTFE membrane, which is completely waterproof, UV-resistant and heat-resistant. The inner layers are specialized fabric membranes, which provide insulation, sound absorption and create an aesthetic surface for the interior space. This multi-layer structure creates an air cushion, enhancing the insulation effect and providing the highest comfort for the user.
Sustainable Engineering Materials
The high-quality stretch film material has a design life of decades, is dust and mold resistant, and is very suitable for the jungle environment. The structural frame is made of alloy steel with anti-corrosion surface treatment. This combination creates a durable structure that requires minimal maintenance. This is a typical application of Stretch canvas structure in the luxury resort industry.
