Anora Beach Resort in Chennai by Webe Design Lab

Located in Kovathur, Chennai on ECR, between Mahabalipuram and Puducherry, Anora Beach Resort is 800 meters from the sea. The client approached Webe Design Lab, Chennai to create a 24 suite resort with a conference hall, a restaurant and a pool. As the site had no physical or visual access to the sea front, the architects wished to re-create the experience of being on the beach
