Located near the historical town of Croatia, Dubrovnik, Aman Cavtat is a bridge connecting wild nature to the calmness of the lavish Adriatic Sea. The hotel is designed to push its limits and become a peaceful architectural landmark connecting two contradicting worlds.
The variety of buildings volumes and heights, form a reference to the Dubrovnik’s historical built environment. The strong vertical elements on the facades, project the ratio of the smallest units within the bigger volumes. These elements divide the façade, while at the same time, shape a unified composition, which reflects and reinterprets the traditional Croatian structured environment with its attached buildings and asymmetrical volumes.
The fusion of materials, along with the redesigning process of the morphological elements, intend to merge the past and the present, creating a unique aesthetic and a structure balanced within its surroundings.
