A new architectural wonder is coming up in the Caribbean, with one of the best architects coming together to set up what can be said a destination to look for. In the Turks & Caicos archipelago, a 560 acre island is being developed which has about 124 villas and 154 residences in the cradle of nature. The project, set to be completed by 2010, will feature works by Shigeru Ban, David Chipperfield, Carl Ettensperger, Zaha Hadid, Kengo Kuma, Piero Lissoni, and Chad Oppenheim. With each architect worth his salt developing their projects, the highlight of the island is the whopping 30,000 sq ft spa by Mandarian Oriental with a luxury hotel and various eateries making it a perfect vacation destination. So go ahead and just unwind!

I am a female Architect German Nationality & Ethiopian Origin. I have studied in Kassel University while Saha Hadid is our Idol and a person of our goal to reach whom we are sporting to be what she is today. I am fully supporting her Idea of Chaos Architecture. I would be very lucky if I could work for her in London Olympic Construction. Please consider my effort I have done so far as African Woman to be Architect and Civil Engineer as the same time in the German society.
Hopping to hear from you

Ofcourse I surely suport the Idea of the “Super Star Architects in The Turks and Caicos Archipelago” Atleast someone has to give the definition of todays Architecutre which has no father or mother. Because everybody would like to be an Architect.
