Fairy-Lucky's Concept

Taking into consideration the natural surroundings of our site, we have interpreted them in a nautical way. Our initial repsonse was that it would be very noisy to sleep in our Fale due to the sound from the motorway over the fence. After considering this we realised the traffic noise comes in waves and that our Fale could have a nautical theme that incorporated the traffic noise.
We are creating a platform in the tree's branches which references a boats deck, on which we can sleep. It also provides shelter to hammocks that we are creating under the "deck" for more sleeping area. The hammocks create a sleeping area elevated off the ground which provides movement as you would experience if you were sleeping in the cabins below the "deck" in a boat.
