Having fantastic views and connection to the beach is very important. Therefore, the resort is built around that idea and space is used wisely. The boundaries of the plots are removed with the purpose of giving residents the feeling of living along the beach.

In Langue de Barbarie, each day brings a different and sacred scenery, making every 24 hours extremely special and beautiful in its own way. It is a challenge to be able to incorporate such a great design into such a fresh place, full of the amazing nature that the earth provides.

CosmosIvicsa has been noticed for the brilliantly detailed architecture and design that identifies every project they have worked on. This is further illustrated by the IIDA AWARD which they received in 2022 for the project in Saint Louis, Senegal. The impressive designs they have created and what they have put into place in various locations is what differentiates them from others. With over 200 projects completed since the beginning of their trajectory, they have shown what they are capable of. Langue de Barbarie is just another project that serves as evidence of the astounding work CosmosIvicsa excels at, in which governments and the public sector can constantly trust.
