The idea for Gibbon Retreat began when H.P Lem, Silicon Valley engineer/returnee/entrepreneur and nature lover, was hiking in the forest. He came to the realisation that whilst there, immersed in nature his stresses and strains would evaporate. He decided to build a series of low impact dwellings to share the benefits with others. The result is Gibbon Retreat. A place to reconnect with nature and recharge both physically and mentally. Sustainability comes first, simplicity is encouraged and life is just a little bit slower. This is our solution to the demands of modern life.
