Voyage Torba Hotel Executive
The accommodation project designed by Baraka Architecture is located in Torba town of Bodrum.
The project is in the town of Torba in Bodrum. It is a town where tourism, construction and relentless profit pressures have limited effects for now. It consists of two story, mostly detached vacation homes and, several boutique hotels.
Voyage Torba is the town’s largest hotel. The project area in question is the combination of two large hotels. The new project has a reduced number of rooms, i.e., 345, spans an area of 74.000 m², and a construction area of 60.000 m2. The five different zones comprising the project area feature 5 different building typologies, which represent the individual needs and contexts of their zones.
We now report on the second zone, which was built between 2019 and 2021. Below are the highlights and issues regarding this period:
The complexity and the scale of the project are disproportional to the town. Handling the project area in one large piece and processing it through a singular architectural character would have been a big intervention for the town, which could have grave consequences. Therefore, a fundamental problem was to reconcile, at the bare minimum, with the existing environment and structures.
Room houses organized around a water courtyard are creating spatial layout between open, semi open and closed spaces. The structure retreats from the water courtyard, creating semi-open niches and canopies. Transitions from open spaces to private spaces are staggered, creating its own entim area.
