This summer housing complex contains 10 individual houses with their own gardens, pools and a common area with facilities like restaurant, seaport and sunbathing terraces. It aimed to have sea view for every single houses. The houses look like each other but have some differences, this can also be seen a reaction to design like mass production. Every house refer to each other and the overall project built harmoniously with nature and local architecture.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The research process was based on territorial housing proportions, traditional materials and building techniques.

CHALLENGE:
This zone is very popular for summer holidays and so many new projects has been built in a modern way without thinking traditions, local features or even nature of the region. The challenge here is to emphasize local architecture and break the understanding of designing like mass production. It has been aimed to create a romantic local village planning in a natural way not a designed complex by a ruler.
