Marina resort

Bending along the North Lebanon coastline like a wave caught mid-motion, this beach resort takes its plan directly from the water it faces: a pair of curved bars sweeping outward toward the sea, one holding single-storey residential and hotel facilities, the other sheltering curved hotel rooms with uninterrupted panoramic views. The organic, wave-like geometry isn't just formal gesture: it's the resort's way of settling into a coastline rather than imposing on it. A concrete promenade runs the length of the sandy beach, interrupted midway by a wooden jetty that leads out to a spiral marina, the same spiralling logic that shapes the buildings above. Circulation is pushed to the rear of the plan, behind a wooden skin that filters the morning east light, while the fully glazed western front opens the hotel and residential units to the sea and the long Mediterranean sunset. It's a resort conceived less as a set of separate buildings than as a single continuous landform, curved to the coast it sits on.
