Oppenheim Architecture 公司旗下的Illa Bimini生态度假村充分利用了可持续的生态景观，为顾客塑造了一个能够拥抱景观，感受自然的生态空间。该项目坐落在比米尼岛（Bimini）9,000英尺的海岸线上，并拥有巴哈马群岛（Bahamas）上的第一座水上住宅，它的开放型设计模糊了建筑与景观之间的界限，使景观与人的关系更为融洽。

Oppenheim Architecture‘s illa Bimini is a new environmentally sustainable eco-resort offering a secluded retreat that invites residents and guests to foster a deeper connection with the landscape. Set on a 9,000-foot stretch of Bimini’s coastline and featuring the first overwater bungalows in the Bahamas, the resort is a holistic community where every element is designed to blur the boundary between architecture and the landscape, bringing residents and guests closer to nature.

其设计灵感来源于项目周围的自然美景。正因如此，构造中选用了落地窗，从而使得大西洋（Atlantic Ocean）和比米尼湾（Bimini Bay）的美景尽收眼底。而且每栋建筑均采用了当地的材料，充分体现了该岛本土的建筑风格。

Illa Bimini’s design takes its cues from the natural beauty of the surroundings. Private villas feature floor-to-ceiling windows and are carefully sited to open up unimpeded views over the Atlantic Ocean and Bimini Bay. Each of the buildings—from the 54 villas and 49-room hotel to the library, restaurant, lounge, and communal pavilions—is designed with local materials that offer a contemporary take on the vernacular architecture of the island.
