 •  Design Details:
 
The complex consists of 9 detached single - and two - storey buildings. The site layout is given in Figure 5. Building 1 serves as a reception building and houses all the communal facilities for recreation, etc. Buildings 2-9 contain between them the 17 furnished apartments. The total floor space of the buildings is 1480 m² and the total volume 5500m³. There are 2590m² outdoor space containing pergolas, trees and gardens.
  The buildings are arranged in a circular fashion facing south- east so that they all have an unobstructed view of the sea. The central area has been kept free of buildings and contains trees and water. Care has been taken that no building inhibits the flow of natural ventilation air through any of the others.
   There are two types of apartments. Type A (of which there are 14) contains a bedroom, bathroom, WG, hallway, kitchen, dining area and a sitting room which can be used as an extra bedroom. The 3 Type B apartments have an extra bedroom with a private bathroom.
  The main axis of most of the buildings is virtually parallel to the sea-shore so that the main facade faces south-east. The entrances are on the north- west. Each building has at least one pergola covering an outdoor sitting area.
