This Resort Was Built Around Trees: Ezra Viniti Resort | BluPrint Design Narratives

Ezra Viniti Resort in Tagaytay sets a new standard for sustainable retreats, designed to embrace nature without cutting a single tree. In this episode of BluPrint Design Narratives, Eric Po and Interior Designer Carlo Mecate show how they design mid-century–inspired cabins, create open layouts, and develop sunken living rooms to promote togetherness. They also use upcycled materials and operate a home biogas system to support the resort’s sustainability goals. This episode explores how thoughtful architectural and interior design can enhance the guest experience while prioritizing environmental responsibility. 00:00 - Intro 00:49 - Design Philosophy 01:49 - Sustainability Efforts 02:53 - Cabin Types and Layouts 03:19 - Nostalgic, Mid-Century Cabin Design 05:05 - Outdoor Spaces and Comfort 06:09 - Sustainable Features in the Cabins 07:51 - The Executive Hub 08:26 - Sharanam: Reflection and Relaxation 09:21 - Guest Experience and Final Thoughts To learn more, visit: https://bluprint-onemega.com/architec...
