In her project called Green Retreat, she provides the community with a sense of her rendering skills and design layouts for a hotel built in the woods. By creating a sustainable option for hospitality that embraces smaller sized buildings allows for more sustainable design. Her designs define how the user can walk through the forest and from house to house on a wooden path. Maria also defines the systems within each house and how they reuse and recycle energy created from heat and cold depending on the weather.
