The Queen Louise Resort competition entry was developed for a site in Lithuania of considerable natural beauty -- a landscape of lakes, forest and gently rolling fields that demanded an architectural response of equal sensitivity.
The proposal envisions a boutique resort where the architecture takes its scale and material cues from the rural vernacular, but is recomposed through a rigorous parametric design process into something entirely its own. The main elevation is generated from a series of folded planes that follow the site topography, creating a building that appears to emerge from the land.
