Residential-tourist complex that combines individuality and community living.

The project is located on a plot oriented towards the east, with a very steep slope. The residential compound is conceived as an alternative to its context, which is dominated by two-story semi-detached houses with individual garages. The result is the conventional residential product, lacking connection with neighbours and being neither accessible, nor comfortable for senior residents. As an alternative, the design proposes two-story blocks containing two accessible apartments: a ground-floor apartment with a garden and an upper-floor one with a rooftop solarium. The apartments are connected to each other by accessible pedestrian pathways, giving the spatial configuration a layout similar to that of a hillside “village.” 

The site is functionally organized into four zones: at the lowest level is the entrance to the complex, preceded by an open space with generous landscaped areas that showcase the spatial quality of the rest of the development. The second section includes a building garage for parking and storage units, seamlessly integrated into the hillside. The intermediate zone concentrates the apartments, the network of pedestrian pathways, and the communication hubs that traverse the complex from bottom to top. At the top of the hill, there is a community terrace equipped with pool and solarium area offering panoramic views of the sunset and the sea. 

The design incorporates several solutions aimed at sustainable management and circular use of natural resources. It is designed to operate entirely on renewable energy generated by solar panels installed on the rooftops. To reduce water consumption, a natural wastewater treatment plant is planned for recycling black and grey water, which will be used for toilet systems and garden irrigation. Additionally as part of the circular strategy, the stone extracted during excavation will be reclaimed to clad the façades and retaining walls, ensuring they blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape.
