The project site is located on the axis from the sea to the forest. Consequently, building the project will result in the interruption of this axis, and the structure will be divided into two parts, one related to the sea and the adjacent part to the forest. The designer's initial goal was to preserve this axis and even extend it throughout the entire project, connecting the forest to the sea.
The next challenge arose due to the limited building footprint, which led to a highly compact project core, making it impossible for natural light and airflow to circulate within it. The designer's solution was to empty the vertical axis of the project and create a void in the plan. By incorporating vertical functions, steps, and the central void, the vertical axis became more prominent and functional.
At the client's request to have a rooftop garden, a staircase was designed to improve the connection between the upper and lower gardens. This staircase not only enhances this connection but also serves as a prominent element in the facade.
The project follows the principles of creating minimal volumes with complex relationships, generating unique perspectives, and providing a less experienced space with large and functional light wells, while also utilizing voids and elevated spaces.
