About Montemar Complex residencial
Montemar és un complex residencial situat a Gonio, Geòrgia, a la costa del mar Negre. Montemar consta de tres blocs residencials de setze plantes cadascun, situats en una parcel·la de 10.000 metres quadrats. Els espais oberts entre els edificis estan destinats a zones verdes, places públiques i àrees comunitàries. S'hi inclou un aparcament per a 300 vehicles. Els apartaments panoràmics amb terrasses privades i jacuzzis miren al mar. Les façanes estan revestides amb xapa d'alumini gofrat, i les seves formes volumètriques evoquen la forma d'una petxina marina.

- Production Technology
- Total site area: 10,000 m2.
Three residential towers: 16 floors each.
Approx. building height: 48–52 m.
Parking capacity: 300 vehicles.
Mixed-use residential complex with panoramic units, private terraces, and integrated landscape/public space system. Designed for coastal climate resistance and optimal sea-view orientation. - Design Challenge
- The main challenge was translating seaside identity into a contemporary architectural language while addressing structural, climatic, and urban constraints. Coastal conditions, regulations, and density requirements required balancing aesthetics with performance. The solution was a shell-inspired facade and spatial strategy that integrates environment, function, and iconic design.
- Research
- Applied architectural research aimed at integrating coastal identity into contemporary housing. The methodology included site analysis, climate-responsive design, and parametric modeling. Data was gathered through environmental studies and urban context evaluation. Results led to a biomorphic facade and optimized layouts. The project enhances coastal living standards and contributes to sustainable urban growth.
- Inspiration
- Architecturally, the project represents a harmonious blend of seaside motifs and modern design elements. The facades facing the sea feature a unique structural element crowned by a terrace overhanging the roof. The aluminum embossed sheet material and volumetric shapes evoke the imagery of a seashell, emphasizing the complex's proximity to the sea.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2024 in Gonio, Georgia, and is currently in development. It is located on Andria Pirveltsodebuli Highway, within a rapidly growing seaside urban zone, designed to become a key residential destination on the Black Sea coast.
- Operation Flow
- The project is designed around fluid movement between buildings, landscape, and public zones. Residents transition seamlessly from private apartments to shared green areas and plazas. Panoramic units enhance interaction with the sea, while terraces and open spaces create a continuous indoor-outdoor living experience, improving comfort and lifestyle quality.
