The architectural design presents a blend of a hotel complex with a vineyard and a nearby village. The aim is to create a connection between the built environment and the natural landscape, enhancing the experience for guests. This integration emphasizes functionality and community, providing both leisure and professional spaces.

Hotel Building

The hotel features 38 guest rooms strategically positioned to overlook the vineyard. This design choice allows guests to enjoy the surrounding scenery directly from their rooms. The building also includes an exploited roof that can be used for special events, adding to the hotel's versatility.



Restaurant and Culinary Spaces

The restaurant occupies the overground floor and is designed with a large glazed facade that welcomes views of the vineyard. This connection to nature enhances the dining experience. A rooftop terrace provides additional outdoor space for guests. The kitchen is located on the lower level to ensure efficient service while maintaining a close connection to the restaurant.



Event and Recreation Areas

A semi-basement parking structure accommodates 40 vehicles and includes spaces for conferences and exhibitions. This feature supports the complex's multifunctional purpose. An event area with a raked floor design allows for various types of gatherings and connects directly to an outdoor recreation ground, which features two swimming pools, encouraging a lively outdoor atmosphere.



Spa and Wellness Amenities

The spa includes a fitness center, indoor pool, and children's club, catering to wellness and family activities. The design extends the elevation to form a wall that borders the outdoor pool, ensuring privacy and a quiet environment even among the playful outdoor spaces.



Overall, the design harmonizes with its surroundings, employing an architectural style that fits well within the local context. The thoughtful arrangement of spaces not only creates ease of movement between areas but also nurtures a strong relationship between guests and the vineyard, allowing visitors to fully engage with the landscape.

`
Competition organisers

The Buildner’s Unbuilt Award 2025 is an international architecture competition dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the value of unrealized architectural designs. It invites architects, designers, and students worldwide to submit visionary projects that have not yet been constructed, highlighting the power of ideas and the creativity behind the design process. By focusing on unbuilt work, the competition aims to bring forward concepts that shape the future of architecture and push the boundaries of the profession. 

Participants can compete in three categories based on project scale: Small Wonders (up to 100 m²), Medium Marvels (101–999 m²), and Large Visions (over 1,000 m²). Each category winner will receive €20,000, and additional prizes include honorable mentions, student awards, and a special Best Presentation Award. Winning projects will gain significant international exposure through Buildner’s publicity campaign and a feature article on ArchDaily, providing a unique opportunity to showcase creative ideas to a global audience. 

The Buildner’s Unbuilt Award 2025 encourages entrants to submit any type of unbuilt project, from conceptual visions to detailed designs, celebrating bold innovation without the constraints of realization. Important deadlines: registration closes on October 30, 2025; submissions are due by November 20, 2025; winners will be announced on December 17, 2025.
