The project shows a very sensitive and well-composed response to the natural as well as cultural context of Reserva Los Sosa. The analysis done on various levels, ranging from ecology at a broader level to architecture, is extensive and has been projected aptly as a well-composed spatial strategy. The strategy of zoning is quite effective for managing tourism, recreational spaces, and natural reserves, and the language of architecture is very subdued and landscape-centric. The usage of local materials, natural terrains, and natural reserves shows awareness and respect for the surroundings related to ecology and biodiversity.
A possible approach may be to develop and define the architectural identity of the built part. Even though the landscape strategy is good, it might help if the formal differences between the programmatic elements are better defined and interpreted without undermining its sensitivity to nature.
