Touchwood is proud to present the latest milestone in our global timber construction portfolio: the TUI Blue Beach Access Stairs, a sustainable, prefabricated wooden platform located in the breathtaking coastline of Santa Martha, built for the internationally recognized hospitality brand TUI Blue.
This elevated viewpoint and beach-access structure are designed to enhance the guest experience, providing a safe and immersive way to enjoy Curaçao’s shoreline.
We are pleased to share that the entire timber structure has been fully prefabricated in our Bali workshop and is now en route to Curaçao for final installation.
Engineered With Cadwork — High-Precision Timber Design
Touchwood uses Cadwork, one of the world’s leading 3D BIM platforms for precision timber engineering. This software has gained significant traction globally as professionals search for timber digital fabrication, BIM for wood construction, and sustainable prefabrication solutions.
Using Cadwork allows us to achieve:
- Accurate 3D modeling for complex timber geometries
- Millimeter-precision cutting lists for fast assembly
- Optimized structural detailing for coastal environments
- Full prefabrication workflow, reducing on-site challenges
This aligns with current global trends toward modular timber construction and low-impact building systems—making the project not only beautiful, but also future-forward.
Built With Bangkirai Hardwood — Durable, Sustainable & Coastal-Ready
For this coastal structure, Touchwood selected Bangkirai hardwood, a tropical timber highly popular in global searches for high-performance wood used in outdoor decks, boardwalks, and heavy-duty structures.
Benefits of Bangkirai :
- Exceptional structural strength for elevated platforms
- High resistance to humidity, UV exposure, and salt air
- Naturally termite-resistant without heavy chemical treatments
- Dimensional stability ideal for tropical and coastal climates
- Long-term lifespan, commonly used in premium resort and marine applications
As sustainable timber becomes a major trend internationally, Bangkirai remains a top-searched hardwood for eco-resorts and coastal developments.
Dark Mahogany Finish — Premium Look for Modern Eco-Resorts
All components of the structure are finished with Dark Mahogany, a color that continues to trend globally for luxury decking, resort architecture, and modern wood tones.
The benefits include:
- Rich, elegant appearance suitable for beachfront architecture
- Balances beautifully with sand, ocean, and natural cliffs
- Enhanced UV and weather protection
- Long-lasting aesthetic performance
This finish ensures both durability and a timeless resort ambiance.
On the Way to Curaçao — Sustainable Prefabricated Timber for Coastal Architecture
With the prefabrication phase now completed in Bali, the structure is currently shipping to Curaçao.
Touchwood’s prefabricated timber system provides:
- Faster installation with minimal environmental disruption
- Cleaner, safer on-site workflow
- Reduced material waste
- Higher accuracy and consistency
This approach aligns with global trends toward eco-friendly construction, sustainable tourism development, and low-impact coastal infrastructure.
Touchwood: Bringing Tropical Timber Craftsmanship to the World
This project represents our continued commitment to delivering world-class timber solutions that combine sustainability, craftsmanship, and engineering precision.
We look forward to sharing the installation progress once our team arrives on site in Curaçao.
