Designer Pierre Stéphane Dumas‘ celebrated BubbleTrees have been used to comprise a full-scale camping hotel, ensuring that visitors to France’s Bouches-du-Rhône region feel pampered while still getting the best views possible. The transparent, globe-shaped tents are made from UV-reflecting, recyclable materials. Due to their geometry, the acoustics reduce outside sounds, while an echo within the sphere encourages inhabitants to speak softly, thereby enhancing the meditative feel of the environs. Last but not least, those concerned with privacy can enjoy a built-in curtain that’s drawn from the bottom up, ensuring that what happens in the bubble, stays in the bubble.
