Join us as a co-maker-in-residence.
Co-makers projects
Basecamp Eco-resort believes in togetherness and co-creation. Join our community for exciting new projects we are planning.
BASECAMP CHANGANI
This beach deserves a bar
An hour outside Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, our eco-resort sits hidden on the coast, surrounded by forests. The quiet beach feels too empty. A beach bar would fill that void. Imagine staying in Dar’s secret garden by the sea? Project launch? Soon.
BASECAMP ROME
This castle is going to thrive
Ever heard of Castle Fusano? That’s where we are building the first phase of Basecamp Rome. Nestled between Rome and Ostia. Clean up the premises, help secure tiny houses on wheels, and more. Live in nature; somewhere in 2027.
BASECAMP MAFIA ISLAND
They all need to look like this
Our eco-resort in Mafia Island, Tanzania, is almost done. Demand is high, so we are reaching full capacity for our renovated rooms. Help finish the remaining apartments so extra guests can arrive. May and June 2027 during the low season.

Artist in residence first project
Create sleepable art.
Basecamp’s first Artist in Residence kicked off in Pula, Sardinia. This project brought together design and construction artists to live and create art in an inspiring environment.
We love to re-use existing resources, and create beautiful & useful art with it.
The artists who took residence.
Michelle & Yamell
“I built my own tiny house, which is now an Airbnb near Giethoorn. With my passion for sustainability, I give old materials a second life. My bohemian architectural style combines dark wood tones, plants and the merging of outdoor and indoor space to create an authentic and natural experience.”
Geraldine
”I am an architect and interior designer of private residential housing. My projects range from big to very tiny, even caravans. The latter being an item on my bucket list and finally got to do in 2022. A project I fell in love withand made me signup for the Artist in Residence at Basecamp Sardinia.”
Cika
Cika Annemae loves creating murals in public spaces. Inspired by graffiti and street culture, she enjoys combining text with imagery. Her paintings often feature insects and (fantasy) animals, highlighting our human connection to nature. It is important for a mural to relate to its surroundings. In Sardinia, the local environment will also serve as an inspiration for her work.
Kate
”I’m Kate, an Australian born artisan with Italian heritage. I spent my childhood in my fathers workshop developing a love for handmade items. I love to use my skills to restore life to spaces and things once abandoned. My concept for the project is a light space which showcases beautiful reclaimed timber, vintage decor and custom artworks..”
Where we started
At Basecamping Pula in Sardinia, we inherited five old mobile homes from the former campsite. Simply throwing them away is not the Basecamp way. Instead, we invited artists to give them a second life, transforming them into unique pieces of sleepable art.
Where we are today
The mobile homes have now been completely transformed. Each artist has created a unique holiday home with its own identity, combining art, design, reuse and functionality.
What was once outdated accommodation has become a collection of one-of-a-kind places to stay, giving existing materials a new life and creating a completely new experience for our guests.
