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.
