Building on flat land is easy: measure up for the foundations and let the piling commence. The same cannot be said when building on uneven land, and even more challenges can be faced when building on the slopes of Koh Samui that distinguishes this picturesque tropical island.
Accepting this undertaking comes with its rewards. Building techniques have advanced over the years and this comes as a benefit to the end user. Developers, architects and engineers work together to conceive the best product for the plot and are not shy in their approach of what they envisage the result to be. Simultaneously they have a responsibility to build something that will fit with the surrounding environment and that will last. Those who are not prepared to face this challenge will just steer clear and work on a simple scheme.
A tricky terrain demonstrates the strength of the team behind a project giving reassurance to the investor. Plus, if substantial time and effort have been gone into the build, this mindset will continue for the interior fit to fit with the property’s high standard. Choosing a hillside location for a villa development will give residents interrupted views of the seas below: worth every an engineering headache. Add an infinity pool to the villas that look like they effortless flow into the Gulf of Thailand, such as at Verano Residences, and the challenges are magnified but as is the end result.
Conceived by Samui Be One Co., Ltd., this developer has risen to the challenges of building on the rocky terrain of Koh Samui, and consequently secured the Best Villa Development (Samui) in this year’s PropertyGuru Thailand Property Awards 2018. The clever design features at Verano Residences include the outside areas being naturally shaded thanks to the overhanging of rooms above, and recessed ceiling in the living areas to make space feel even bigger. Aside from these aesthetically pleasing aspects, it will also ensure help to retain and increase the property’s value in time.
The judges appreciated the challenges of building in this location agreeing it was worth every penny, commenting, “Verano Residence’s winning qualities are its well-conceptualised tropical villa design that looks modern yet comfortable. Once completed, it will be one of the best new manicured development to rise on Samui.”
