ESPADAN RURAL RETREATS

  • ARTANA,

  • 2002

Intervention located in the rural landscape consisting of a restaurant and a variety of rural retreats.  The program aims to mix weekend visitors, with guests in longer holiday stays.  The intervention is located near the Natural Park of Sierra Espadán, in its easternmost point, which binds to the flat region covered with orange groves. The buildings are located on a level below and around the mountaintop, freeing this for the public space of reception from which visitors are distributed. The mounting cliffs immediately behind are taken as a starting point.  According to this, each of the buildings is configured with a large slightly tilted wall facing the landscape, a clear reference to the magnitude and pervasive vastness of the landscape, with the Mediterranean Sea as the line of the horizon.
