Our proposal for a hostel in Vieques aims to build a strong, environmentally friendly Interior and building that can withstand the island's climate challenges. By using sustainable materials and practices, we create a healthy living space for medical workers and visitors. And try to promote healthier habits for the people of Vieques. The interior design will create a welcoming and calming environment. We design clay breeze block, sliding door and door window frame system for patients and visitors, promoting breathing atmosphere for everyone.  For exterior design, we create SHADE HOUSE system that can withstand the challenges of the island's climate and self-serving food system, while also promoting a healthy lifestyle for both the visitor and the medical workers who will temporarily reside there and the local community.
