An aerial architectural precedent for a coastal resort complex combining twin high-rise towers with organic beachfront leisure pavilions and multi-tier pools.
- What we like about this project
- Organic woven-looking canopy roofs over the beachside dining and pool amenities contrast sharply with the rigid rectilinear towers.

- Geometry
- Twin vertical high-rise towers paired with a low-slung, sprawling podium and organic-form beachfront pool pavilions.
- Facade system
- Unitized glass curtain wall with regular vertical punched balconies on the tower blocks.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame structures for towers; lightweight canopy structures for beach pavilions.
- Spatial scale
- Large-scale resort development featuring multistory hotel towers and expansive landscaped pool decks.
- Lighting
- Bright midday sun casting crisp shadows across the towers and landscape with reflected blue highlights on pool surfaces.
- Atmosphere
- Bright, luxurious, and vacation-oriented coastal atmosphere.
- Environmental context
- Coastal beachfront site bounded by dense urban context on one side and open sea on the other.
- Spatial experience
- The composition transitions from dense urban fabric and tall towers down to open terraced pools and the ocean edge.
- Composition rhythm
- Vertical window grids on the towers counterbalanced by undulating, organic curves of the low-level beach pavilions.
