Sochi Island (16 photos)

This series of projects continues the theme of "Aerotel" in the development of water space and creating an economical alternative to alluvial islands. They all have a specific reference to the waters of Sochi.

PIER HOTEL - is the most realistic concept for the development of marine piers in the area of ​​future Olympic Games. To the newly constructed waterfront structures have commercial impact, it is proposed to complement their plate hotel, hung on some rare supports. The roof of the hotel is transformed into additional public space that blends in with the level of the coastal park.

Catamaran - this concept is proposed to place in front of the city center, where there is no room for development. In continuation of the existing breakwaters built two hotel blocks, between which spreads "artificial ground" with the necessary accommodations for public spaces. Vertical units are original stops for the cabling structure of the platform and create a resilient and seismically stable structure.

STARFISH - it is a complete and self-contained island connected to the mainland by pedestrian-motor "stem." Five hotel towers rising in the sea, form the silhouette of the island and its interior space. Between them are the landscaped "petals", covering the social level by rolling hills and forming a green "oasis».

OLYMPIC Island - is the largest and most significant building in the run-up to the Olympic Games. Off the coast of the ring formed by five platforms (like oil platforms), and linked to the shore pedestrian and road bridges. Each platform consists of a ring-shaped hotel with an inner atrium space, the center of which stands the tower apartment. Following the symbolism of the Olympic rings, platforms represent the five continents - Europe, Asia, America, Africa and Australia. In internal atriums are theme parks (tropical, rock and so on.), And each tower gets his face painted "Olympic" color. The entire complex with no less success could be claimed, and after the Olympic Games as a unique recreational center.

With the further development of concepts assumed maximum use of environmental technologies - alternative energy sources (solar, wind, ocean currents), desalination of seawater, intensive greening roofs, maximum recycling, etc.
Although binding to Sochi, each project could appear in any waters forming ecological oasis in the center of the seaside resorts and in locations far from civilization.
