According to research conducted by the University of Michigan, USA, living near water increases our sense of happiness and reduces stress levels. Furthermore, according to the principles of Feng Shui, an important cultural concept throughout Asia, water brings positive energy, as well as prosperity, fertility, health and fortune. Hence, Crystal Lagoons® amenities are transforming in response to this growing trend that seeks to develop real estate projects facing water, both in Asia and the world.
An example of this is Vincity Ocean Park, a Vingroup development, which will be the first project in Vietnam to implement amenities that are usually found only in luxury resorts, taking them to a big city such as Hanoi, Vietnam. The real estate project will include a 14 acre man-made, crystalline lagoon created and driven by Crystal Lagoons technology.
Real estate trends in Asia in general, and Hanoi in particular, are no exception to this growing trend. In many new developments, apartments with views of rivers or lakes are usually priced at least 20% higher than those found in other areas.
What will be Crystal Lagoons first artificial lagoon, Blue Tree in Phuket, Thailand, located in the water and entertainment park Blue Tree, will open during the year. It will include 17 stylish restaurants and food establishments that will provide options for all tastes and budgets, all of which will be centered around Blue Tree’s main attraction: Blue Tree Lagoon, designed and powered by Crystal Lagoons.
