Island Community
Croatia

""

"" "" ""

The village and community on a secluded and beautiful Croatian Island is conceived as a rural hamlet settlement with a district centre around the pursuits of island living and related activities. It is a polycentric development with a strong sense of community.

The conceptual master plan for the village aims to provide a framework for the development of the community and its environs. The master plan sets out the basic organisation of houses, public buildings and the way by which these can be organically amalgamated into the existing landscape within the valley and slopes over looking the Dalmatian coast line. The concept designs seek to define the major principles of scale, character and density of development, along the line of traditional urban settlements found in the Dalmatia region of Croatia.

In order for the village to succeed there is a need to create a concept that represents uncompromised quality, integrity and innovation. The concept is not perceived as a gated community on an island, rather a new type of development that offers residents and visitors community values in an innovative island setting. The philosophy is one of fusion of the old and the new.
