Competition concluded in 2011
The aim was to reinterpret the atmosphere of a family spa hotel, where the way of being is peculiar and indoor and outdoor connections are central. As the spaces are large, different environments were defined to promote diverse experiences. The large central courtyard is the central connecting and distribution element of the entire project.
Despite being a green area where Nature will always be strongly present, the building’s intrinsic relationship with the surrounding forest will be reinforced through the adoption of a bold design language, enriching the identity of the place.
