从陡峭的山坡上缓缓走下来，俯瞰大海。Mint Santa Theresa是一家新酒店，融合了欧洲设计美学和哥斯达黎加工艺，旨在确保客人能够与自然交流。
Stepping down a steep hillside and overlooking the ocean, Mint Santa Theresa is a new hotel that blends a European design aesthetic with Costa Rican craftsmanship – created to ensure that guests can commune with nature, each other and local people.

瑞典的客户们爱上了作为冲浪天堂的Santa Theresa，以及它蓬勃发展的瑜伽社区。受希腊建筑、极简主义和斯堪的纳维亚设计的启发，他们委托了萨克斯工作室（Studio Saxe），该工作室以其与热带景观协调一致的建筑风格而闻名。
The Swedish owners fell in love with Santa Theresa as a surfing paradise, as well as its burgeoning yoga community. Inspired by Greek architecture, minimalism and Scandinavian design, they commissioned Studio Saxe who have developed a reputation for their approach to architecture that harmonises with tropical landscapes.

酒店是一个展馆式建筑，在那里他们可以退到一个私人区域，但仍然与周围的自然互动。宽敞的客房可以完全开放到一个个人阳台，前面可以看到海景，后面可以看到热带植物的花园。甚至连浴室都有一个开放式的布局，让客人有机会在聆听海浪撞击声的同时淋浴。
Hotel residents occupy individual pavilion-like structures where they can retreat into a private zone and yet still interact with the nature around them. The spacious guest rooms can be opened up completely to a personal terrace with an ocean view to the front and a garden with tropical plants in the rear. Even the bathrooms have an open layout, giving the guests the opportunity to shower while listening to the sound of the crashing waves.

每间客房都有自己的屋顶露台，配有郁郁葱葱的植物、乘凉的风帆，以及由哥斯达黎加以其居民的手艺闻名的城镇Sarchí制造的藤制家具。建筑师们在整个项目中都使用了当地采购的材料，比如在天花板上用“caña brava”（一种草）做成的复杂鱼骨图案。当地工匠还用当地木材制作定制家具，并以新的方式使用传统技术。
Each room is afforded its own rooftop terrace, complete with lush plants, a sail for shade and furnished with rattan furniture made in Sarchí, a Costa Rican town famous for its inhabitants’ craftsmanship. The architects have used locally-sourced materials throughout the project, such as in ceilings that are made of “caña brava” (a type of grass) installed in an intricate fishbone pattern. Local craftsmen have also created custom furniture made of local wood and using traditional techniques in new ways.

项目的中心是公共休息室区域，有无限的游泳池和日落酒吧。除了入口处的一堵植物墙外，酒店四面都是开放式的，在保持自然环境的同时，为客人提供了一些隐私。休息室是该地区客人、业主和当地人的聚会场所。早上，一份自助早餐，在公共餐桌上吃，一天中的晚些时候，故事在日落前的饮料中交换。在项目的体验是一种新的旅游形式的一部分，游客希望了解更多关于目的地的信息，并了解真正生活在那里的感觉。
The heart of Mint Santa Teresa is the communal lounge area with its infinity pool and sunset bar. It is open on all sides save for a single wall of plants by the entrance, providing the guests with some privacy while maintaining the natural setting. The lounge serves as a meeting spot for guests, owners and locals of the area. In the morning, a breakfast buffet, is eaten at a communal table and later in the day stories are exchanged over drinks by sunset. The experience at Mint Santa Teresa is part of a new form of tourism, where visitors want to learn more about a destination and get a sense of what it is like to actually live there.

设计师他的观点：“传统上，酒店成了景观中的巨大体量，与周围环境毫无关系，缺乏真正的人际互动。而在Mint，我们致力于创造一种与环境相适应的设计，为追求真实感的旅行者提供一种新的体验。我们努力创造空间，将欣赏自然美与丰富的社会和文化互动可能性结合起来，其结果是一种对好客和健康的独特思考方式。”
Benjamin G. Saxe explains his vision: “Hotels traditionally became vast objects in the landscape that bear no relation to their surroundings and are devoid of genuine human interaction. At Mint, we endeavored to create a contextual design that adapts to its landscape and offers a new type of experience for a breed of traveler seeking authenticity. We worked hard on creating spaces that combine an appreciation of natural beauty with a rich array of possibilities for social and cultural interaction. The result is a completely unique way of thinking about hospitality and wellness.”
