Golf Hotel in Ponte de Lima, Portugal by Topos Atelier de Arquitectura, LdaNovember 18th, 2014 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Topos Atelier de Arquitectura, Lda The Golf Hotel integrates a set of equipments from the Ponte de Lima’s golf course. From this set of equipments, designed by Topos Atelier, the clubhouse was built between 1993 and 1995 while the touristic village, with 86 dwellings and started in 1995, is now complete. The hillside terrain, sloping to the west, for the construction of the hotel, stretches from the touristic village (south) to the clubhouse (north).  Image Courtesy © Xavier Antunes

To the west, the access road to the parish of Fornelos separates the site from the golf course. We sought to regulate the insertion of this group of buildings in the landscape, Clubhouse + Hotel + Touristic Village, and establish new spaces of relation between these equipments.

The meeting of these two languages results in two overlapped volumes.
