The main concept idea of the project is to create an aestheticly pleasing, minimal and cozy environment where the visitors can “escape” from the busy character of the area and yet, be next to the city centre. Taking into consideration the urban context, privacy for the residents was the main priority. Therefore, matching the area’s scale, we created a shell with volumes that wrap the private facilities and form a central courtyard. Also the use of parking spaces around the building volumes creates the first layer of privacy by increasing the distance of the blocks from the main roads.
The architectural language of the resort is based on a monolithic pattern using earthy and pastel tones in order to create an exotic and dreamy environment. The design was developed through a series of playful and minimal volumes, exterior corridors to create an aesthetically pleasing environment. The monolithicness of the project becomes an oasis in the city centre.
