Production Technology
The project was developed through an integrated architectural, interior and landscape design methodology by S.A.I.T. Studio. Terraced structural systems support green roofs and water features in combination with reinforced concrete construction. Natural stone, timber surfaces and high performance glazing were selected to enhance durability, climate responsiveness and visual continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Design Challenge
The primary challenge was achieving high density development while guaranteeing uninterrupted sea views for all residential units and hotel rooms. Strict zoning parameters and topographical constraints required a carefully calibrated stepped massing strategy. The challenge was resolved through terrain responsive site planning that optimizes placement, privacy and landscape continuity.
Research
The project explores a contemporary coastal hospitality living model in the Aegean region. The research focuses on optimizing sea view orientation, terraced massing efficiency and landscape integration in high density hospitality developments. Spatial studies, climate analysis and user comfort scenarios informed the final configuration, aiming to balance environmental responsiveness with long term spatial quality.
Inspiration
Palm 1890 was inspired by the coastal character of Alacati and the distinctive landscape of the Aegean region. The project reinterprets local coastal living traditions through a contemporary hospitality oriented approach. Architecture, water and greenery are composed to frame uninterrupted sea views, terraced gardens and climate responsive outdoor spaces that support both residential comfort and short stay accommodation.
Project Duration
The design phase began in May 2025. The project is located in Alacati, Izmir, Turkey and is currently under construction.
Operation Flow
The project is designed to provide a smooth and intuitive experience for both residents and hotel guests. Separate yet visually connected circulation paths allow comfortable movement across the complex. Stepped terraces and planted open areas guide circulation naturally while maintaining privacy. The layout supports intuitive orientation while preserving uninterrupted sea views throughout the development.
