The project aims to cleverly blend with the landscape; therefore, the buildings evoke the surrounding rock formations and appear to emerge from the mountains themselves. Approaching from the sea, one will gradually notice that what appeared to be geological formations from a distance are, in fact, buildings and villas.
The architecture studio paid special attention to the sport, and along with the 120-berth marina, the main element of the town, the project will host also an equestrian club, a golf course, and a tennis club.
