Barra Nova Pearl and Lagoa Pearl Eco-Nature Resorts are socially, environmentally sustainable, and ecologically integrated projects in the most beautiful bay of Bahia, Brazil.
While ensuring a quota of no more than 20% of land built, privacy and spaciousness are key elements in the overall design concepts. These developments will incorporate innovative homes. The environmental impact of our developments is lessened through strategies implanted to protect and preserve the natural landscapes of the local habitat, this is done by:
Conservation and sustainability is at the heart of these unique and special projects, with architecture adapting to nature and not the other way around.
Planting and reallocating plants and trees when necessary.
Through the purchase of a Barra Nova Pearl or a Lagoa Pearl Eco-Nature Resort, property owners will sponsor “Nature Elements” for life (such as the protection of animals, trees and local farming).
Ecological in helping to preserve and enhance the environment with the help of environmentally focused foundations.
Implementing programmes to conserve or restore endangered species.
Protecting and developing biodiversity in urban areas.
Developing an integrated approach on biodiversity.
Developing the economic, health and social aspects of biodiversity.
Using local natural building materials wherever possible.
Sourcing building materials on the basis of the suppliers’ ethical practices, rather than on price.
Recycling and low-energy consumption through solar, wind, and water.
Providing alternative, non-pollutive, transport systems to reduce the need for cars within the resort with pollution-free, electrical golf buggies and eco-trains. Boat transport using dedicated routes that link residential areas, golf club and the beach club. No roads, just paths and passages within the development.
Creating reservoirs and ponds across the resorts to store the rainwater needed to irrigate the eco golf course and gardens.
Developing a series of systems to recycle as much waste as possible.
