The urban philosophy from the renowned architect Wilson Reis Netto was to integrate as much as possible form natural resources into the design of the habitat. In this Wilson Reis Netto was a Pioneer and in front of the avant garde. His Concept of cross ventilation was also fascinating to Professor Helmut Schulitz, who visited Porto da Lua in February 2009 as a guest and who won the architectural competition on rebuilding the soccer stadium “Fonte Nova” in Salvador, in order to make Salvador, the capital of Bahia, fit fort he soccer world games in 2014: ”The concept and the realization of tropical architecture for this Beach Hotel Praia do Forte - Porto da Lua is amazingly well balanced, and its comfort provided by the cross through ventilation of the natural breeze is amazing”.Le Corbusier influenced the work of Wilson Reis Netto

Architects from various countries have repeated that compliment to the designer and therefore o this Beach Hotel Praia do Forte itself. So for example the Architect Matthias Gorenflos from the office “Gorenflos Architekten” in Berlin, who was amazed to see the influence of Le Corbusier everywhere in this Hotel Praia do Forte, from the geometrical proportions of the rooms, especially in the second floor, to the choice of materials. This because Wilson was not only a co-worker of Le Corbusier, but also was successor in following Le Corbusier on his chair at the University of Sorbonne in Paris, after le Corbusier passed away. This honour by itself is a remarkable award for the architecture of our Beach Hotel Praia do Forte Porto da Lua, but of course also for the Ecoresort and the old “Pousada Praia do Forte”, which was pulled down a few years ago.
