Abstract

Nigeria’s environmental sector currently face a significant funding gap. Nigeria has great prospects when it comes to Resort Designs thanks to the diverse landscape, beautiful scenery and many destinations with historic significance. Unfortunately, this is not the case and hence this pose to highlight major problems in Nigeria and possible solutions. The goal of this study is to ascertain the best ways to include soft landscape aspects into resort designs to enhance visitor appeal. In this sense, resorts are independent businesses that aim to provide most of a visitor's needs on the property, including food, drink, housing, sports, entertainment, and shopping. To test the hypothesis that soft landscape elements integrated in resort designs leads to an improved psychological approach on vacationers on such structures, a primary and secondary survey would be carried out to factor out certain data to achieve my aim. Respondents would be randomly divided into two conditions (the vacationers and Staff of several resorts) and asked to respond to an interview guide material. Responses would be concluded and analyzed for my findings using percentages to develop a data to consider for my proposed design. The results gotten from my analysis would be the governing factor to give an insight on how best the integration of soft landscape elements in resort design can be designed. On this basis a good design should therefore be proposed to ensure a proper resort design after proper research and considerations.

Abstract

Security has become an issue that has been reoccurring especially in the current state of the country which raises concern for the design of resorts within the nation and the challenges should be considered and gotten a solution for as soon as possible. The aim of this study is to assess security strategy design in resort design. The research method used in this study is the qualitative method and the use of observation check list has been adopted in obtaining information. The observation schedule was used as an instrument to collect data and the data were used as sampling method. These data were analyzed with content analysis and the findings showed that security measures have not been properly adopted in the resort design and most resorts do not take into consideration the necessary design strategies which has automatically open them to external threats. The research recommends that the need to design with consideration of security should be of uttermost importance in designing resort based on the number of people going and the function of the building and to urge other designers to consider the requirements while designing.
