STEP 1: GET IN TOUCH

2: TELL US ABOUT YOUR IDEA

3: GET A SUSTAINABLE PROJECT
Want to start ecotourism project but don't know how to make it sustainable?

Nowadays, tourist properties in Portugal are very diversified and most of them (built after 1990) have not suffered significant interventions, maintaining the original configuration and characteristics. In fact, they do not have any environmental sustainability certification and efficient management of resources (water, energy and waste) for the decarbonization of tourism activity.
The linear model (extract-produce-use-dispose) can be difficult to abandon when sustainable techniques are unknown and funding is not yet available to implement them in one's own ecotourism and rural tourism projects.
However, no owner should worry about not earning enough, not attracting the right customers (sustainable tourism advocates) to their ecotourism enterprise and spending so much on supplies.
Increase your profits with ecotourism project
As a firm specializing in research, sustainable architecture, and circular economy, we understand that the success of an ecotourism enterprise is also measured by its ability to adapt and respond to issues of environmental and social sustainability.
Thus, Residual studio (sustainable architecture firm in Portugal), can help you with the realization of sustainable tourism projects, such as rural tourism, ecotourism, glamping and eco-resort in Portugal, which increase the environmental awareness and well-being of your clients.
Request technical support for the implementation of sustainable measures in your ecotourism venture, satisfy your guests, and increase the possibility of obtaining financial support through ecologically sustainable architecture projects that value sustainability, circular economy, environmental management, accessibility, and reduction of seasonality in your ecotourism business.
