sustainability
We are inspired by the natural world that surrounds us; it is the power source for human connection. By immersing ourselves in nature, we immerse ourselves in the present moment. As we look to the future of travel, we believe in providing solutions that create healthier sustainable habits and habitats. Our design is informed by each of our unique locations and our homes are built with sustainably sourced materials that have minimal impact on the environment.
With discovery of rare places of natural beauty comes great responsibility. Our purpose is to protect our home, the earth, through immersive spaces that deepen our awareness. We seek to educate and inspire, while holding transparency in high regard.
our sustainable practices
At terra, our construction methodology minimizes our environmental impact. This allows us to activate some of the most unique locations in the world while protecting mother nature. We design modular structures for our rooms, choosing sustainable materials and re-planting trees, for efficient assembly that does not require concrete or the need for traditional equipment or heavy construction. We design our structures to allow us to build in an efficient way without compromising design integrity and guest experience.
Sustainability is at the forefront of our entire process, from our supply chain down to operations. In our procurement, we use the most sustainable methodology of wood-sourcing, which avoids sourcing wood from mature trees and only uses young wood sourced from forests that are harvested every 3-5 years. We then process and compact the wood, ensuring structural strength, stability and durability. Throughout our entire supply chain, we are an entirely single-use plastic-free operation. Throughout our restaurant operation, food is sourced locally and seasonally and food waste is properly managed and disposed of.
Our design philosophy is simple: we let nature speak for itself.
