Yalta

hotel and residential complex, 2006

White concrete towers rise upon a steep terrain in the spaces free of trees. Shaped as a sandcastle, each tower accommodates residential apartments.

Facades are structured as a net of connecting strips between the panoramic windows. Each apartment takes an entire floor of a tower and therefore has an all-around view.

As the landscape lowers down towards the beach, there appear green terraces with sportsgrounds, open swimming pools, and restaurants.

A short way leads to the waterline via an elevator. An open promenade facing the sea connects the vast territory into a unified health route.

All the vehicles park underground, in the caves inside the rock.
