Ahãma Hotel & Resort (Göcek, Turkey) —2022

Set in Günlüklü Bay, next to a protected 20-hectare forest of oriental sweetgum trees (Liquidambar orientalis), the hotel comprises 30 cabanas, 29 guesthouse suites and a private villa. Working with an international team of architects and designers, including Héctor Esrawe, Álvaro Sampedro shaped a landscape in dialogue with the wild forest already on site, favouring native planting and natural forms over anything imported or ornamental.
