Common Ground: A Collective Garden as Sustainable Architecture

This ongoing collective garden project explores sustainability not as a slogan, but as spatial practice—where shared land becomes both material and narrative.

Conceived as the ultimate retirement vision, the tiny private island – only 250 metres in diameter – is designed to resemble an exclusive private home with each house and residence custom designed to include one, two or three spacious bedrooms, a separate living room, expansive sundeck and private pool. Ocean views satisfy the eye in every direction with a backdrop of dense tropical landscape and a thriving reef just metres from the shoreline.

In order to ensure the freedom philosophy is upheld, each property boasts a private House Master to realise guests’ desires at every stage and ensure each exacting detail is to their liking. Flexibility is key, with the three restaurants offering suggested menus intended merely to spark a conversation. Guests are encouraged to explore their appetite to find true satisfaction with dining available in whatever location of the island takes their fancy.

Situated within a thriving UNESCO biosphere reserve, the island’s surrounding natural reef is just 15 metres from shore and plays host to some of the world’s most spectacular marine life. The on-site marine biologist will play a crucial role in ensuring the long-lasting health of the reef and its inhabitants, with aquatic expeditions for guests organised to suit everyone from experienced divers to novice snorkelers. Manta rays, whale sharks and the endangered green turtles are just a few of the island’s neighbours known to frequent the waters.

The spa and wellness menu will showcase the best the planet has to offer, with sunrise and sunset yoga, daily meditation and drop-in spa appointments as and when the mood strikes. A team of experts will be in situ throughout the year, equipping those who wish to learn with the tools to take their new-found fulfilment with them beyond the island’s perimeter.

BEKEB 將巴洛克牛仔美學帶入 San Miguel de Allende

25/09/2025

在牧場文化與殖民歷史之間，BEKEB 以「巴洛克牛仔」語彙重構當代酒吧空間。 BEKEB 是座落於設計導向的豪華度假村 Live Aqua San Miguel de Allende 之中的全新手搖雞尾酒吧。空間將牧場文化、殖民時期的華麗語彙與當代工藝交織融合，刻意顛覆傳統、巴洛克與現代設計之間的既定邊界。團隊將這種混種美學稱為「巴洛克牛仔」——一種既張揚又自覺的風格表述，使酒吧成為地方歷史、工藝細節與夜生活節奏交會的舞台。 San Miguel de Allende是墨西哥中部高地的殖民時代城市，以其巴洛克式西班牙建築、繁榮的藝術景象和熱鬧的節日而聞名。 BEKEB是位於設計主導的豪華度假村Live Aqua San Miguel de Allende內的全新手工雞尾酒吧，透過調酒技術和設計展現了該鎮的獨特個性。酒吧由最近從紐約返回祖國墨西哥的著名調酒師Fabiola Padilla構思，並由當地室內設計工作室MAYE的室內建築師Maye Ruiz實現，酒吧將他們在Bajío的共同根源提煉成一個層次豐富的環境，將牧場文化、殖民時期的輝煌和現代工藝交織在一起，他們稱之為 “巴洛克牛仔” 美學。
