OVANE is a cabin conceived as an architectural metaphor: a leaf gently resting on a stone. This poetic gesture shapes a refuge immersed in the forest, which transcends habitation to become a sensorial, physical, and emotional experience. The roof, a skate ramp integrated into the architecture.

We stayed in villas of various sizes with pitched roofs, nestled in the forest at a distance from each other. The tranquility of the forest at night, the sound of animals and the chirping of birds during the day, along with communal spaces, gatherings, a café, and a restaurant, provided a serene atmosphere.
