Bofill Taller de Arquitectura Unveils Landscape-Inspired Resort in Dhermi, Albania
"The project aims to preserve the character of the forest while engaging with the rugged terrain, jagged rocks, steep mountainsides, and dense pine and cypress forests."
"The floor plan is composed of a series of squares, while the building section varies in height to provide different spatial experiences suited to hotel pavilions, apartments, and villas."
"A base composed of locally sourced stone follows the rise and fall of the terrain, with the resort's volumes connected by exterior stairs, bridges, and walkways."
"This strategy allows the architecture to blend in with the surrounding landscape, resulting in a palette of four colors determined by samples taken from the area."
The Veil resort in Dhërmi, Albania, features 366 apartments and 77 villas across two plots, designed to integrate with the mountainous coastline. The layout avoids significant trees and existing vegetation, utilizing a base of locally sourced stone that follows the terrain's contours. The architecture employs a consistent color scheme and façade treatment to blend with the landscape. The design emphasizes a light veil concept, connecting various volumes through exterior stairs, bridges, and walkways, while providing diverse spatial experiences suited to different building types.
