Bar & Recreation Walls

After reception walls were done we started with the bar and recreation area with their shared toilet facilities (restaurant & lounge have their own as well). These buildings have large windows and around the front will have many wooden full-length louvred doors opening to a 2m wide wooden deck and the forest beyond. Part of the view from the bar and restaurant will include the large communal outdoor campfire area.

The lobby between the bar and lounge seen here from the lounge in the foreground. The bar is beyond the the lobby.

View across the floor of the bar towards the recreation area. The wall on the left will form the back of the half-moon bar. From centre to the doors (visible in the right of the shot) is an 8m radius - this building will also have the highest roof with the centre post in excess of 12m high.

Bar, Lounge & Restaurant

During May the concrete slabs for the bar, lounge and restaurant were completed. In order to deal with the varying levels between sections and buildings as well as aesthetic purposes, the concrete was poured 'within' a perimeter of small shaped volcanic rocks. This then also hides the level of concrete from view when the buildings are seen from the outside as the walls will be erected inside but against the edge of this little rock perimeter.


The photos below show clearly how big the difference in levels between sections and buildings really is.
