Reconstruction of Public Facilites in Mon Perin Camping, Croatia by NFOFebruary 18th, 2019 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: NFO Camping Mon Perin is located in the municipality of Bale, Istria Peninsula in Croatia and is spread over 9 km of coastline, halfway between towns Rovinj and Pula. The whole area is protected as valuable natural environment and also as an archaeological site. That resulted with very strict construction conditions that permitted reconstruction but within the existing spatial parameters. That condition has been an extremely aggravating circumstance knowing the standards that had to be met in terms of categorization. The project task was to raise Camp categorization from 2 ** to 4 **** between two summer seasons by reconstructing the main facilities: reception, restaurant and 8 toilets. It was also aimed to create a modern camp with facilities and architectural language that suggests a new direction of services development within the camp. Existing facilities were mostly “reconstructed reconstructions”, too small in size and inadequate aesthetics.  Image Courtesy © Mon Perin

Besides the reconstruction of the existing plan of the reception of an outer pergola was added as a sort of antechamber for the gathering of guests. Reception pergola also embraces and 3 “coated” containers for the camp administration purposes during the season. The triangular floor plan came from the shape of the existing roads that direct visitors to one or the other camp.

The reconstruction kept the basic structural system with a complete change of interior and the facade. Next to the restaurant is a large terrace, playground and space for mounting the stage.

The goal was to design all toilets in similar form. Four bathrooms located in San Polo are made with brushed stone precast while bathrooms at Camp Colone are finished with HPL boards. They consist of closed parts and covered area for washing dishes and clothes.

The project received ARTUR Award (by Zagreb Society Of Architects) for the best tourist project realization in 2016.
