Mediterranean way of life

The design of this residential cluster draws inspiration from the rich urban history of Split, dating back to the 4th century with the arrival of Emperor Diocletian to the peninsula.

The project has a single overarching goal: to embrace the warm Mediterranean climate while introducing a way of living that prioritizes outdoor spaces, all while achieving the high density expected of a 21st-century city. It rejects the standardized, sterile hallway design typical of most modern and postmodern residential projects. Instead, it fosters a more humanized shared exterior space reminiscent of the entrance courtyards found in the old townhouses of Split’s historic center.

The apartments are designed to be highly modular, offering a rich palette of layouts made from the same set of building blocks. These range from compact studios to spacious four-bedroom floor plans, ensuring a variety of options to suit diverse needs.
