Interior designer, photographer, and all-around creative Vianca Soleil created a unique house in Puro Island of Philippines, the Unna resort. Puro is an oasis of unspoiled land with no establishments and pristine beaches that go on for miles. Using entirely local materials and craftsmen, Vianca is currently building her dream project, a resort that will allow travelers to enjoy the secluded haven for what it is—a natural respite filled with unfettered beauty and a new, untethered way of living. 
All materials are sourced within the Romblon Islands, mostly in Puro itself. The thatched roofing is made of common cogon grass and the kitchen hut is made from coconut palm and timber. Romblon also happens to be abundant in marble. The floors are made of marble bits taken from the shore and we work closely with craftsmen on the neighboring island to carve out furniture pieces. It’s a slow and mindful build that champions local craftsmanship.
