THE NEVISIAN

Project: The Nevisian, Collaborator: Love & War

THE NEVISIAN

A pristine shoreline on a seldom visited island hides The Nevisian, a timeless luxury resort with restaurants, villas, spas, a conference center, and the world’s first 5-star modular hotel. As DF&A designed it, this resort will be the culmination of a long and winding journey. A flight will bring visitors to St. Kitts, Nevis’s sister island, where they’ll catch a boat ride from Basseterre across the Narrows, enticed by views of Mount Nevis draped in low-hanging clouds. From there, a ride in a classic Citroen, which takes visitors on a mysterious journey through the lush and little-known island, around vistas of incredible natural beauty, to emerge at the northeast coast and the totemic shapes of The Nevisian.

FANNIE MAE

When the mortgage giant Fannie Mae was planning to move to new headquarters, it hired DF&A to help explain why, what the move meant for the culture of a company, and how employees could prepare for change—and for the future.

ALOFT

BRANDING REINVENTION
