Tyler’s Projects
PORTO BOEGA
A WORLD-CLASS RESORT, WORKING IN HARMONY WITH THE LOCAL CULTURE, COMMUNITY AND ENVIRONMENT
Storyland Studios are developing Porto Boega – a theme park driven heavily by a story that can evolve over time.
The 50-hectare Boega Island was previously a farming settlement but has been unoccupied for many years. It is located on the Minho River, along the Portuguese-Spanish border.
The island has since been left untouched but still holds a vital role in the maintenance and flow of the river. It requires management and intervention, with occupancy key to ensuring its longevity.
As part of the early stages of the project, Tyler led the in-depth feasibility study for the clients, commanding a high-level view of strategic planning, demographics and projected financial figures.
