3.15.11 - Hotel Missoni, Belek, Antalya, Turkey Architects and master planners for the project are WATG. John Goldwyn of WATG describes the site, where the Taurus Mountains meet the southern coastal plains, as having "an interesting topography that benefits from a cool breeze in the summer as well as panoramic views towards the Mediterranean coast." |
CHALLENGE The challenge for the project was to create a new integrated resort in Turkey's premier golf destination while preserving the unique characteristics of the region.
SOLUTION The design solution utilizes exisiting olive trees on agricultural terraces as the base for Turkey's first 'countryside resort.' The building design is based around little villages rather than lined up along the golf frontage. Local materials are used on contemporary buildings to respond to the context with integrity.
