THE NE[S]T presents at INOUT 2024 the [X]SHIP, Extreme Sustainable Human Innovative Pod, research and development program aimed at exploring the most extreme sustainable solutions in the field of outdoor experiential tourism.
The result of this research is an innovative module for micro-reactivity in Nature that tells a futuristic scenario of hospitality in symbiosis with the Planet, yet another episode in a design story made of Innovation and Sustainability.
Summer 2024: a space shuttle lands at Lido di Spina, Unesco Biosphere.
Connected to the Tree-base and resting on its metal feet, a hatch opens from the small cabin, allowing Guests to enter and enjoy a truly immersive experience in Nature, a contact with a near future, evocative and friendly to the Planet.
[X]SHIP is the new hospitality-concept signed by THE NE[S]T, a synthesis of the love for Nature and technological innovation that have always been the stylistic signature of this world-famous Italian studio.
The project stems from the desire to bring Guests to a true symbiosis with the natural elements, giving them a night under a sky of stars, lifted off the ground, connected to the Tree as a living system.
[X]SHIP materializes THE NE[S]T's gaze towards the hospitality of the future, using innovative materials according to the codes of generative parametric design and combining it with the most innovative digital fabrication technologies.
Indeed, [X]SHIP is configured as a module, implementable with bio-responsive technologies that allow it to actively react to the environmental stimuli of the host context.
With its endoskeleton made of recycled aluminum, parametrically modeled and CNC-machined, and its covering of super-performing composite material, the project concretizes the point at which technological and formal research finds its practical application, demonstrating how a hospitality module can be re-interpreted with the most advanced tools of design and processing, up to the point of realizing the Tree Houses of the Future.
