Editorial issue No.3
Mauritius is the main island, from which the
country derives its name. Of volcanic origin,
it’s almost entirely surrounded by sheltering
coral reefs. With hundreds of amazing passes
with perfect waves, lefts and rights, short and
long barrels and deep to hollow tubes, it’s a
surfer’s paradise and with numerous, vast la-
goons to boot, there’s great
sailing, diving and fishing diversity, too.
There‘s no shortage of top spots, swells, la-
goons or wind, but there has been a distinct
lack of information about all these things
About Mauritius
Nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean, south of Africa and east of Mada-
gascar, this dreamy isle sits ideally between the Tropic of Capricorn and
the equator, providing a perfect tropical climate all year round.
- until now! This comprehensive guide ena-
bles you to experience the range of stunning
spots on our beautiful island for yourself.
Take the swells and gentle sea breezes, add
the impressive Indian Ocean climate, great
coral reefs, large lagoons and a handful of
quality breaks and you have the perfect surf-
ing, windsurfing and kitesurfing destination.
The Unique Mauritian Culture is a blend of
Indian, Chinese and Creole sweetness and
spices with an influencing European History,
in other words amazing local cuisine. Get a
taste for the magical mélange of influences
with a warm Dol Pourie, whether it’s on a
street corner in Port Louis, from a delicious
hotel buffet or à la carte at a well-reputed ta-
ble d‘hôte in Chamarel. You‘ll find specialties
everywhere you go, all worth a try. Shop-til-
you-drop at Flacq‘s bustling open-air mar-
ket, a vibrant and colorful marketplace full
of fresh local products at great value. The
island’s home to countless bars and restau-
rants. Check out the iconic Banana Bar in
Grand Bay, which hosts both local and inter-
national artists, from jazz to soul. In the mood
for dancing?The numerous nightclubs offer a
great atmosphere where you can boogie the
night away to the sounds of House, Dance
and RnB music played by top DJs.
The island boasts some of the world‘s most
beautiful private and public beaches, fringed
by swaying palms and lapped by crystal-
clear turquoise waters. Combine that with
the magnificent, exotic sunsets and tropi-
cal vegetation of the various game reserves,
national parks, private hunting estates and
colonial houses such as St Aubin and Eureka
where honeymooners can make their dreams
come true and you‘ve got a winning formula.
Golf fan? Mauritius is fast earning a reputa-
tion for being home to some of the world‘s
most amazing golf courses. Its fantastic archi-
tectural designs by big names such as Ernie
Els and Bernhand Langer offer avid golfers a
challenging game. But whatever your handi-
cap, you‘ll find somewhere to suit your needs,
whether you‘re aiming for a hole in one at
one of the top-class hotels or dodging the
water hazards on the new Ile Aux Cerfs, you‘ll
love putting your way through the stunning
settings that are simply unbeatable. The
Mauritius Open PGA attracts international
and local professionals and many a celebrity
has been spotted practicing their swing on
the island‘s championship courses.
Grand Bay is the place to head for catamaran
cruises and sailing boats. Blue Bay and Black
River offer amazing trips to nearby islands
such as Coin De Mire, Ile Plate, Ile au Gabriel
and Ile aux Bennitier. Famous spots for snor-
keling and scuba diving include the famous
Silver Star wreck and the Cathedral underwa-
ter cave. Mauritius and Rodrigues offer some
of the world‘s best deep-sea fishing with
many experienced skippers and fishing boat
owners, such as Tamarin local fishing legend,
Jerome Moonsamy, aka Mr. Bull. Deep sea
fishing is possible off the East, North and
West coasts and the best operators are based
in Black River and Trou aux Biches. The best
months are the summer months (October to
May.) Mr. Dominique Theveneau offers fly-
fishing and casting outings on reefs for in-
dividuals or small groups. Not forgetting the
Mauritius Aquarium, home to 100‘s of tropi-
cal aquatic life and fish.
If the sea doesn‘t float your boat, there are nu-
merous land-based pursuits to participate in.
Choose from inland adventure tours, sight-
seeing in four-wheeled drives, on mountain
bikes or hiking (Yann De Maroussem fromYa-
naventures is a great hiking enthusiast who
knows his way around the South), along with
a wealth of other activities. The adventurous
among you should head to Yemen Nature
Park for great quad bike riding and abseiling
close to the 3 Mamelles Mountains.The game
reserve of Domaine Du Chasseur offers fabu-
lous panoramic views and sunsets, while the
magnificent Black River Gorges National Park
is home to wonderful wildlife, where bird-
lovers can spy protected bird species such as
the pink pigeon, kestrels and rare forest trees.
Photographers will love snapping away at
the Vanilla Reserve des Mascareignes, home
to Nile Crocodiles.
If gardening‘s your thing, the Pamplemousse
Garden is one of the oldest tropical gardens
in the world, bursting with exotic flowers and
tropical trees. If architecture‘s your kick, you
won‘t be disappointed by the 1830 Eureka
House or St Aubin Colonial House, The
Ruins of Ballaclava or Martello Tower, il-
lustrating intriguing history from early
settlers. History buffs shouldn‘t miss
the modern sugarcane exhibition of
L‘Aventure Du Sucre and the Salt Pans of
Tamarin, for fascinating facts about the
slavery trade. Animal lovers can spend
the day with wild stags, tigers and mon-
keys at Casela Bird Park, home to 140
bird species from five other continents.
Set in 25 hectares of tropical vegetation, con-
sisting of a wide variety of palm trees, bam-
boos, eucalyptus and colorful exotic flowers
such as the hibiscus and orchids, you‘ll enjoy
a gorgeously-perfumed day.
So, where do we all get this amazing history
and mixed heritage from? Well, it all started
back in the 10th century when the Arab navi-
gators, already familiar with Mauritius, gave it
the name of Dina Arobi but were not interest-
ed in settling. It was only rediscovered by the
Portuguese in 1505, followed by the Dutch,
who were believed to have caused the extinc-
tion of the famous Dodo which is now the em-
blem of Mauritius.Then came the French, who
lost out to the British, before independence
was attained in 1968. Since then, Mauritius has
enjoyed a stable democracy with regular free
elections (every five years). Along with a posi-
tive human rights record, the country has at-
tracted considerable foreign investment and
has earned one of Africa’s highest per capita
incomes. Due to poor weather in the last cou-
ple of years, the declining sugar prices have
slowed economic growth, leading to some
protests over standards of living in the Creole
community, but tourism, textile and offshore
investments are the other major economic
contributors and Mauritius is one of the few
countries which has been resilient throughout
the global recession.

What is the Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS)?
What is Real Estate Scheme (RES)?
Real Estate File
The IRS is basically a project for the construction and sale of luxury villas to foreigners in an
idyllic setting near the beautiful coastal region of Mauritius. The acquisition of a villa for resi-
dential purposes only by a foreigner under the Scheme will allow the foreigner and his family
to reside in Mauritius as long as he holds the property.
The Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS) provides:
Villas sold under the scheme form part of a complex of luxury villas of international stand-
ard and high-class facilities and amenities such as: golf course, marina and individual swim-
ming pool, nautical and other sport facilities, health and beauty centres, high class restaurants
amongst others. Maintenance, waste disposal, gardening, security and other household ser-
vices are also included.The extent of land in respect of each villa shall not exceed 1.25 arpents
(0.5276 hectares). The villa can be acquired on the basis of a plan or during the construction
phase.
Mauritius is renowned for his hospitality industry with some of the best resort hotels in
the world. With this in mind government has attracted foreign investment (FDI) by the in-
troduction of several regulations to allow foreigners to purchase real estate in Mauritius.
The Real Estate Scheme (RES) provides:
The RES, is a new scheme which has been introduced by the Government of Mauritius at
beginning of December 2007 to allow the development of any mix of residences for sale
mainly to non-citizens on freehold land of an extent of at least 1 arpent but not exceeding
10 hectares. The scheme must offer commercial and/or leisure amenities in addition to the
residential component. Individual sites should not exceed 1.25 arpents. There is no mini-
mum value to purchase in the RES scheme yet on property which exceeds USD 500000 the
buyer will be granted residency status once his purchase is approved by the government.
The Invest Hotel Scheme (IHS) allows hotel developers to finance the development of a hotel
project by allowing them to sell villas, suites, rooms or other components that form part of
hotel to individual buyers.
The Invest Hotel Scheme (IHS) provides:
for the development of a hotel on either freehold or leasehold land of more than 1 hectare
where unites, villas, suites or other parts of the hotel can be sold; that the buyers of a unit en-
ters into a lease agreement by which the property is leased back to the seller; and that the unit
leased to the seller may be used and occupied by the unit owner or any person on his behalf
for a total of not more than 45 days in any period of 12 months.

Meeting with the
“Socio-Architect”Vinesh
Chintaram
Could you tell us what Eko-
Lakaz is all about?
Eko-Lakaz™ is a brand which
emphasizes on sustainable and
affordable housing solutions.
It was developed (since early
2010) to provide sustainability
advice, eco-house design and
construction solutions adapted
to each context of intervention
(in-situ). The concept is being
implemented in Mauritius as a
“socio-environmental & eco-
nomical development catalyst”
and caters for the low and mid-
dle income groups
The brand is intended to be
promoted across other African
countries. It is aimed to play a
key role in line with the UN’s
MDG to alleviate poverty by
providing decent shelters to one
and all.
What could you say about the
green design principles?
Pre-designed eco-housing mod-
els based on passive design
concepts are proposed. The
houses incorporate efficient use
of natural sunlight, optimized
cross-ventilation for cooling;
and make maximum use of local
made and low carbon footprint
materials. The concept also ca-
ters for rain water harvesting
systems and incorporates waste
water recycling systems where
appropriate. Renewable energy
solutions may also be provided
whenever required.
	
Why the middle and low
income group?
Eko-Lakaz™ is not only meant
to adopt eco-friendly principles
but most importantly proposes
affordable/economical houses.
The target group very rarely calls
for/afford architects to design
and competent contractors to
build their houses, and one of
the key consequences is the on-
going degradation of the “built-
scape” especially in rural areas
in Mauritius. Eko-Lakaz™ is thus
Interview
Eko-Lakaz™ was developped by
the Mauritian architect and urban
designer Vinesh Chintaram
expected to respond to these
challenges by bringing positive
change. Furthermore, the target
group represents a very signifi-
cant market both locally and re-
gionally.
Moreover, in Mauritius, land is
becoming very scarce and ex-
pensive, and the target group
represents mostly people who
live in rural areas, in general not
yet ready to live in apartments /
high rise houses. It is simply not
part of the local culture. Most
real estate projects under devel-
opment do not meet the needs
of the said category of people.
Eko-Lakaz™ is also a “half-half
concept which could be called
as “Intermediate housing”. Thus,
proposing a relatively compact
but comfortable house on a
small plot of land, is to some
extent a way to allow Mauri-
tians and others to perpetuate
local traditions (receive families,
friends, neighbours for religious
events and other kind of com-
munity exchanges etc.). After
all, sustainability is also about
conserving cultural dimensions
wherever possible.
Additionally, the models pro-
posed are in modular forms thus
promoting standardized pro-
duction/ building methods re-
ducing cost. Extension modules
are available to respond to cur-
rent & future needs of the users.
Could you now talk about
your construction techniques?
At its first implementation stage,
our professional team (archi-
tects and engineers, as well as
sustainability consultants) found
it wiser to make use for the local
available construction materials,
i.e. in block works and reinforced
concrete structures. However,
we have enhanced the execu-
tion technique, which allows
us to make efficient use of re-
sources.
Between, in early 2010, we had
an experiment with the contain-
er house designs. Due to lack of
availability of containers locally,
we could not further develop
the scheme. But, along with our
partners, we are actually final-
izing a special metallic frame
structure house we which will
soon launch on the market. Be-
sides, wooden structure houses
are also in the pipe line.
Last but not least, we are devel-
oping our own eco-friendly con-
struction material which shall
significantly reduce the carbon
footprint. This is top secret as
this stage!
How do you intend to
implement your concept?
The company Ma Villa de Reve
Ltee (the Developer) has espe-
cially been established to imple-
ment the concept Eko-Lakaz™
The Developer, with its partners,
offers One-Stop-Shop solutions
(planning, financing, design
and construction, management
...) for residential development
projects ranging from low cost
housing to high standard villas
which adhere to sustainability
principles. It has the ability to
develop individual houses as
well as multi housing units/ resi-
dential complexes.
Between, the brand was offi-
cially launched during the 1st
“Salon de la Construction et de
l’Immobilier” held at Free-Port
Mer Rouge (27th Feb -
2nd Mar 2013). The kick-off was
a success story; more than 50%
of the visitors came especially
for Eko-Lakaz™.
Finally, why do you call
yourself a“Socio-Architect”?
My personal aim is to vulgarise
the architectural profession and
make it accessible to one and
all, and place the architect at the
centre of every societal develop-
ment!
Indeed, I coined the term“Socio-
Architect”as it means what I am,
a social worker after all
Interview
Who is Marvin CHUNG?
After studying interior design for four years in Pittsburgh, U.S.A,
Marvin Chung joined work full time for an architectural firm in Pitts-
burgh. One year later, he returned to Mauritius and worked for an
event management company. After a while, Marvin decided to go
back to his preferred field of interest which is to enhance the living
environment of occupants. Marvin was given an Honourable Men-
tion in the 31st Annual Photography Contest while he was still living
in Pittsburgh. He was also twice awarded the first prize in the interior
design competition for the university. He eventually returned to in-
terior design when he was given the opportunity to join the team
at Roche Bobois, Mauritius. Marvin is thrilled to be able to work with
contemporary and neo classic style furniture which is Roche Bobois’
trademark. By using the jewel style of Roche Bobois high end furni-
ture, the interior designer manages to create and renovate his client’s
interiors, and enrich their living and experience.
How to relook your home?
1. Companies have learned how
important the psychology of
colour is in their branding. On a
fundamental level, it is crucial to
understand the client’s need in
order to create an interior envi-
ronment. Whether it is a natural
ambiance for a cottage, or an airy
modern feel for a car showroom.
2. Material and texture are essen-
tial to the look and feel of the liv-
ing environment. Wooden floors,
for instance, give a cosier and
warmer atmosphere to the inte-
rior. Whereas white glossy tiles
project a cold, sleek but modern
look to the room.
3. Change of layout is another
option to relook your interior. Be
brave, and dare to move around
some existing or new furniture.
Eclectic is the new black. Having a
mixture of both contemporary as
well as neo classic is an everlast-
ing trend.
4. Lighting is a crucial element in
switching up the interior mood.
Nowadays, the scientists, design-
ers and psychologists believe that
lighting plays an important role
on human mood and people’s
social behaviours. Multi-coloured
lighting would never look as
good in an office as it would on a
dance floor.
5. All suggestions, ideas and
advice are based on the clients’
personality, tastes and desires.
Knowing the client as an individu-
al within their surrounding is vital
for a successful design, which in
turn offers the sense of well-be-
ing to clients in the interior that
reflects who they are.

designs, making the space more fluid and
original. This becomes possible through the
new ‘Galbé’ model which can be seen in the
MOBALPA catalogue.
New materials were added to the existing
range. These new materials are not just
beautiful to the eye but suggest us to touch
and be near to the material. We can illustrate
that by two samples of the ‘NIOBE’ models
(cérame ardoise, cérame ivoire).
Adding to that, a lot of wood effects
models were added to the new catalogue.
The updating of the range of products is
reviewed and amended yearly by MOBALPA,
in order to be able to satisfy clients looking
for the latest trends in design and materials.

So, where do we all get this amazing history and mixed heritage from? Well, it all started back in the 10th century when the Arab navi- gators, already familiar with Mauritius, gave it the name of Dina Arobi but were not interest- ed in settling. It was only rediscovered by the Portuguese in 1505, followed by the Dutch, who were believed to have caused the extinc- tion of the famous Dodo which is now the em- blem of Mauritius.Then came the French, who lost out to the British, before independence was attained in 1968. Since then, Mauritius has enjoyed a stable democracy with regular free elections (every five years). Along with a posi- tive human rights record, the country has at- tracted considerable foreign investment and has earned one of Africa’s highest per capita incomes. Due to poor weather in the last cou- ple of years, the declining sugar prices have slowed economic growth, leading to some protests over standards of living in the Creole community, but tourism, textile and offshore investments are the other major economic contributors and Mauritius is one of the few countries which has been resilient throughout the global recession.

  • 17. What is the Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS)? What is Real Estate Scheme (RES)? Real Estate File The IRS is basically a project for the construction and sale of luxury villas to foreigners in an idyllic setting near the beautiful coastal region of Mauritius. The acquisition of a villa for resi- dential purposes only by a foreigner under the Scheme will allow the foreigner and his family to reside in Mauritius as long as he holds the property. The Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS) provides: Villas sold under the scheme form part of a complex of luxury villas of international stand- ard and high-class facilities and amenities such as: golf course, marina and individual swim- ming pool, nautical and other sport facilities, health and beauty centres, high class restaurants amongst others. Maintenance, waste disposal, gardening, security and other household ser- vices are also included.The extent of land in respect of each villa shall not exceed 1.25 arpents (0.5276 hectares). The villa can be acquired on the basis of a plan or during the construction phase. Mauritius is renowned for his hospitality industry with some of the best resort hotels in the world. With this in mind government has attracted foreign investment (FDI) by the in- troduction of several regulations to allow foreigners to purchase real estate in Mauritius. The Real Estate Scheme (RES) provides: The RES, is a new scheme which has been introduced by the Government of Mauritius at beginning of December 2007 to allow the development of any mix of residences for sale mainly to non-citizens on freehold land of an extent of at least 1 arpent but not exceeding 10 hectares. The scheme must offer commercial and/or leisure amenities in addition to the residential component. Individual sites should not exceed 1.25 arpents. There is no mini- mum value to purchase in the RES scheme yet on property which exceeds USD 500000 the buyer will be granted residency status once his purchase is approved by the government. The Invest Hotel Scheme (IHS) allows hotel developers to finance the development of a hotel project by allowing them to sell villas, suites, rooms or other components that form part of hotel to individual buyers. The Invest Hotel Scheme (IHS) provides: for the development of a hotel on either freehold or leasehold land of more than 1 hectare where unites, villas, suites or other parts of the hotel can be sold; that the buyers of a unit en- ters into a lease agreement by which the property is leased back to the seller; and that the unit leased to the seller may be used and occupied by the unit owner or any person on his behalf for a total of not more than 45 days in any period of 12 months.

  • 25. Meeting with the “Socio-Architect”Vinesh Chintaram Could you tell us what Eko- Lakaz is all about? Eko-Lakaz™ is a brand which emphasizes on sustainable and affordable housing solutions. It was developed (since early 2010) to provide sustainability advice, eco-house design and construction solutions adapted to each context of intervention (in-situ). The concept is being implemented in Mauritius as a “socio-environmental & eco- nomical development catalyst” and caters for the low and mid- dle income groups The brand is intended to be promoted across other African countries. It is aimed to play a key role in line with the UN’s MDG to alleviate poverty by providing decent shelters to one and all. What could you say about the green design principles? Pre-designed eco-housing mod- els based on passive design concepts are proposed. The houses incorporate efficient use of natural sunlight, optimized cross-ventilation for cooling; and make maximum use of local made and low carbon footprint materials. The concept also ca- ters for rain water harvesting systems and incorporates waste water recycling systems where appropriate. Renewable energy solutions may also be provided whenever required. Why the middle and low income group? Eko-Lakaz™ is not only meant to adopt eco-friendly principles but most importantly proposes affordable/economical houses. The target group very rarely calls for/afford architects to design and competent contractors to build their houses, and one of the key consequences is the on- going degradation of the “built- scape” especially in rural areas in Mauritius. Eko-Lakaz™ is thus Interview Eko-Lakaz™ was developped by the Mauritian architect and urban designer Vinesh Chintaram
  • 26. expected to respond to these challenges by bringing positive change. Furthermore, the target group represents a very signifi- cant market both locally and re- gionally. Moreover, in Mauritius, land is becoming very scarce and ex- pensive, and the target group represents mostly people who live in rural areas, in general not yet ready to live in apartments / high rise houses. It is simply not part of the local culture. Most real estate projects under devel- opment do not meet the needs of the said category of people. Eko-Lakaz™ is also a “half-half concept which could be called as “Intermediate housing”. Thus, proposing a relatively compact but comfortable house on a small plot of land, is to some extent a way to allow Mauri- tians and others to perpetuate local traditions (receive families, friends, neighbours for religious events and other kind of com- munity exchanges etc.). After all, sustainability is also about conserving cultural dimensions wherever possible. Additionally, the models pro- posed are in modular forms thus promoting standardized pro- duction/ building methods re- ducing cost. Extension modules are available to respond to cur- rent & future needs of the users. Could you now talk about your construction techniques? At its first implementation stage, our professional team (archi- tects and engineers, as well as sustainability consultants) found it wiser to make use for the local available construction materials, i.e. in block works and reinforced concrete structures. However, we have enhanced the execu-
  • 27. tion technique, which allows us to make efficient use of re- sources. Between, in early 2010, we had an experiment with the contain- er house designs. Due to lack of availability of containers locally, we could not further develop the scheme. But, along with our partners, we are actually final- izing a special metallic frame structure house we which will soon launch on the market. Be- sides, wooden structure houses are also in the pipe line. Last but not least, we are devel- oping our own eco-friendly con- struction material which shall significantly reduce the carbon footprint. This is top secret as this stage! How do you intend to implement your concept? The company Ma Villa de Reve Ltee (the Developer) has espe- cially been established to imple- ment the concept Eko-Lakaz™ The Developer, with its partners, offers One-Stop-Shop solutions (planning, financing, design and construction, management ...) for residential development projects ranging from low cost housing to high standard villas which adhere to sustainability principles. It has the ability to develop individual houses as well as multi housing units/ resi- dential complexes. Between, the brand was offi- cially launched during the 1st “Salon de la Construction et de l’Immobilier” held at Free-Port Mer Rouge (27th Feb - 2nd Mar 2013). The kick-off was a success story; more than 50% of the visitors came especially for Eko-Lakaz™. Finally, why do you call yourself a“Socio-Architect”? My personal aim is to vulgarise the architectural profession and make it accessible to one and all, and place the architect at the centre of every societal develop- ment! Indeed, I coined the term“Socio- Architect”as it means what I am, a social worker after all Interview

  • 30. Who is Marvin CHUNG? After studying interior design for four years in Pittsburgh, U.S.A, Marvin Chung joined work full time for an architectural firm in Pitts- burgh. One year later, he returned to Mauritius and worked for an event management company. After a while, Marvin decided to go back to his preferred field of interest which is to enhance the living environment of occupants. Marvin was given an Honourable Men- tion in the 31st Annual Photography Contest while he was still living in Pittsburgh. He was also twice awarded the first prize in the interior design competition for the university. He eventually returned to in- terior design when he was given the opportunity to join the team at Roche Bobois, Mauritius. Marvin is thrilled to be able to work with contemporary and neo classic style furniture which is Roche Bobois’ trademark. By using the jewel style of Roche Bobois high end furni- ture, the interior designer manages to create and renovate his client’s interiors, and enrich their living and experience. How to relook your home? 1. Companies have learned how important the psychology of colour is in their branding. On a fundamental level, it is crucial to understand the client’s need in order to create an interior envi- ronment. Whether it is a natural ambiance for a cottage, or an airy modern feel for a car showroom. 2. Material and texture are essen- tial to the look and feel of the liv- ing environment. Wooden floors, for instance, give a cosier and warmer atmosphere to the inte- rior. Whereas white glossy tiles project a cold, sleek but modern look to the room. 3. Change of layout is another option to relook your interior. Be brave, and dare to move around some existing or new furniture. Eclectic is the new black. Having a mixture of both contemporary as well as neo classic is an everlast- ing trend. 4. Lighting is a crucial element in switching up the interior mood. Nowadays, the scientists, design- ers and psychologists believe that lighting plays an important role on human mood and people’s social behaviours. Multi-coloured lighting would never look as good in an office as it would on a dance floor. 5. All suggestions, ideas and advice are based on the clients’ personality, tastes and desires. Knowing the client as an individu- al within their surrounding is vital for a successful design, which in turn offers the sense of well-be- ing to clients in the interior that reflects who they are.
