About Surfland Cyrchfan, Parc Syrffio

Mae Surfland yn gyrchfan a pharc syrffio wedi'i leoli yn Garopaba, yn nhalaith Santa Catarina, Brasil. Y prif atyniad yw pwll tonnau artiffisial sy'n caniatáu syrffio drwy gydol y flwyddyn, ar gyfer syrffwyr sy'n dechrau a rhai profiadol fel ei gilydd. Mae'r safle'n gorchuddio 400,000 metr sgwâr, ac o hynny mae 233,000 metr sgwâr yn cael eu cadw fel ardal cadwraeth amgylcheddol. Nid yw'r adeiladau ond yn meddiannu tir agored, felly ni chaiff y llystyfiant presennol ei dorri. Defnyddir carreg naturiol, pren, concrit, dur, tywod a phlanhigion brodorol. Mae'r dirwedd yn dilyn ffurfiau llifol dŵr.

Production Technology
The materials used in the project were natural stone, wood, concrete, steel, sand and lots of native vegetation.
The technology of the artificial wave pool is from the Spanish company Wavegarden.
Design Challenge
Surfland, as the name suggests, is the land of surfing! That is, the place with the ideal conditions to practice the most famous water sport.
As a result, the project needed a tropical aesthetic that reflected the characteristics and purpose of the surf culture. And, even though in Brazil we have several beaches and waves, the aesthetic reference of the most famous places for surfing is primarily American.
For this reason, it became a challenge to choose species that are able to adapt to the local climate and that, at the same time, convey the aesthetic concept that is in the imagination of the population - when referring to the surf landscape.
Research
The Surfland project, since its conception, had the purpose of generating the least possible impact on the environment. In addition to the environmental licenses established by the competent bodies, the project combined other sustainable development responsibilities with architectural, urban and landscape concepts. The built environments will be integrated into the natural environment and the land will be occupied only in the open areas, without the need to cut the existing vegetation.
Inspiration
The concept was inspired by the fluidity of the water. It values movement, nature and organic forms. From indoor environments to landscaping, every detail seeks to provide the public with a unique experience in line with the lifesyle of the Surfland Brasil brand.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2018 and ended in June 2019 and is being built in the city of Garopaba, state of Santa Catarina in Brazil.
Operation Flow
The Resort will have 7 buildings with 2 floors, the second with coverage totaling 270 apartments in the multi-property system. The development will have a complete infrastructure for other sports activities such as tennis, beach tennis, grass soccer, one of the largest skate parks in Latin America with approximately 2,000 m2 designed by champion Pedro Barros, trails, bike paths, fitness space, spa center, kids club, open mall, surf museum, surf and tennis clinics, swimming pools, gastronomic village are part of the attractions and activities of the resort. Anyone staying at the Resort will have an appointment to use the wave pool. What remains of the Resort's occupation will be made available to the public through a day pass to enjoy the attractions of the park and the wave pool.
