Project Background
Background
The client decided to start an Airbnb business in Santa Fe. Considering the long-term operation, stability, and weather resistance, the dome seemed to be the right choice.
Objective
For outdoor hotel accommodation
Implementation
1) In October 2020, the client asked us about 5m to 7m accommodation balls, we also discussed the possibility of 10m or other sizes, even different Glamping tent instead of just dome. initially, there was no specific requirement for the size of the ball and the type of house, but all sizes were considered, and finally we decided to go with the 7m diameter, the most popular size of accommodation ball.
2) After about a month of communication on the details, we decided to place an order for the 7-meter diameter dome at the end of the year, and completed the production at the beginning of 2021, which took about 2 months from production to delivery.
Challenges
The project is located in Sante Fe canyon area, the environment is very vast, there is no shelter around, so compared to safari tent these traditional types of Glamping accommodation tent dome is undoubtedly the most suitable. Especially the client has designed tree houses for outdoor hotel projects in tropical areas before, so the client still has more knowledge about outdoor accommodation tents.
The local climate has a big temperature difference between daytime and nighttime, and it may be hot and stuffy during the daytime when the weather is sunny, so the exhaust fan should be turned on all the time. When the temperature is low, it is best to turn off the exhaust fan.
The dome's quick setup also makes building a campsite very convenient. Especially for remote wilderness, this is crucial for any outdoor campground or hotel.
Features & Outcome
Located just south of Santa Fe off of Highway 14, this project is nestled in an ancient canyon, the coolest place in Santa Fe. With 360-degree views of all the mountains in the area, glistening with exquisite sunsets, this is the ultimate desert camping experience. There's heat, showers, and king-size beds inside, plus a private chef service, and it's totally pet-friendly.
