‘THE LUXURY RESORTS’

SUBMITTED TO: MA’AM RUBINA

SUBMITTED BY: ZAID ISLAM

INTRODUCTION:
In the present days, in our country the environment is very stressful, everywhere there is
uncertainty of life, assets etc., in short there is uncertainty of “Happiness”. The definition
of happiness changes and gets more complex with time.

“There's nothing wrong with enjoying looking at the surface of the ocean itself, except
that when you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you've been
missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to
the circus and staring at the outside of the tent.”

I want to design a place where people can relax, a place far away from the miseries of
daily life, a place where they can forget the worries of future. A place that speaks for
the immense beauty of nature. In our cities, everything is degenerating with the
passage of time and the environment greatly affects the efficiency of work.

“Human nature is like water. It takes the shape of its container.”

I am going to design floating resorts, a place where, poets can create new perspectives
of poetry, artists can create new pieces of art, a place where a lay man can experience
and feel the real face of nature that makes them to wonder.
