SUMMARY

This is probably the golfer’s sublime. Up in the best sun oriented hill of PGAC, facing the hole 18 of the Stadium Course, a new concept of living golf is evolving.

The apartment conglomerate has been divided in smaller blocks to preserve the landscape. Each block is properly settled to enjoy the perfect golf views, while reducing the volumetric impact on the horizon. See without being seen.

Two different typologies, semi-detached and apartments, playing by the same geometric rules. Both lands adapt to the hill. Both keep the general standards of PGAC in terms of materiality, high performance technologies and environmental sustainability. Both enjoy generous indoor and outdoor open concept layouts.

The strict geometry of the built volume merges interior and exterior. Indoor and outdoor architecture keeps materiality and formal mechanisms. This strategy harmoniously dissolves the strict volumes into the forest. Each tree is part of the construction, providing it with privacy, shadows or visual borders for your home.

Common areas are conceived as a part of the landscape, avoiding the possible suburban banalisation. They are designed prioritising the pre-existing vegetation and natural platforms. Extra value is added thanks to the preservation of the immaterial atmosphere through an abstract use of the construction materials; with each pine needle or fallen deciduous leaves in autumn considered as a substance for construction.

The apartment blocks adapt in a way to the mountain, just like old towns near Girona, where hummocks and buildings merge into the sunset and, in this particular case, face the hole 18.
