Valencia based BalzarArquitectos designed a residential complex in Torrevieja, a seaside town located south of Alicante, Spain. The show home that is already completed, showcases a distinct minimalist approach, highly promising for the final project.
Description:
Torrevieja is a seaside town located south of Alicante, known for its
major tourism attraction. Its surroundings have a high landscape and ecological
value on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea in the form of Las Lagunas de La
Mata y Torrevieja Natural Park.
Distant views towards this natural park with mesmerizing light pink hue of the salt lagoon, a
recently constructed urbanization in which there are no neighboring buildings
yet, striking topography and a complete triangular block form the context in
which Balzar Arquitectos and Julia Alcocer have designed the Mirasal
residential complex.
The project resolves the placement on the lot by conforming to its
perimeter, creating a large interior garden. The building seeks to harmonize
with the topography, mimicking the levels of the natural terrain. It is
architecture which aims to express itself as a whole, whose plasticity is a
result of its horizontal proportions and white materials.
The building is currently under construction, with an estimated end date
for the first phase of construction in early 2019. Recently, two show homes
have been finished and equipped in order to commercialize the complex.
