Grand Hotel & Spa Rodina is composed of a great territory of Mediterranean forest next to the Sochi coastline and where constructions are scattered over the area. A collection of buildings from different periods and architectural styles ranging from classical, Art Deco or soviet modernism. 

 

In this territory, Building nr3 , one of the bigger structures designed in the soviet times,   stands abandoned and in a derelict condition. 

​

The project envisions the renovation and transformation of the original structure to transform it into a accommodation building of the hotel, providing space for new typologies of suites , including penthouses on the rooftop. 

 

The design differs from the original repetitive facade layout by providing a more varied facade that express the different room typologies that co-exist in the building. The facade is therefore is assemble by variations on the room module, changing from terrace to cantilever box to flat facade. 

​

The facade is therefore transformed into a filter providing different possibilities of getting in contact with the natural landscape in front of it. 

​

The rooftop is renovated by adding an extra floor of penthouse apartments as well as gardens and a cocktail lounge bar and terrace.
