MASK Architects has designed the world’s first eco-tourism resort in Africa which autonomously produces its own green energy and water for the community.

Called BAOBAB Luxury Safari Resort, it takes shape as a cluster of beechwood lodges, and here's everything to know about this marvel.

MASK Architects Has Created Baobab - The World’s First Eco Tourism Safari Resort

Based on the typology of a community village and the shape of the ancient baobab tree, the BAOBAB Luxury Safari Resort by MASK Architects is outfitted with air-to-water technology and is powered by transparent solar device-covered curtain glass. The resort enables guests to reconnect with the rich environment and engage with the wildlife that freely roams around the community by creating a tranquil retreat anchored in nature.

The project, which is a part of a larger restorative plan, aims to build a picturesque retreat in the middle of nature and is also the first stage in the architects' strategy to build an ecologically sound community in Africa. The resort improves infrastructure, agriculture, and manufacturing while also collecting and distributing water to underserved areas.
