Project description
La Mer Resort & Spa is a contemporary hospitality unit/complex located in the north-eastern part of Crete. Among its facilities, 76 rooms and 900 m² of common areas such as spa, indoor pool and gym are included. Apart from exceptional hospitality services, La Mer Resort & Spa also serves as rehabilitation center for military personnel, recovering from anxiety disorders. The architectural concept serves the diverse building program with great sophistication. Spatial quality, sense of comfort and ample view towards the sea are important design principles. The delicate materiality of the complex, allows it to merge into the surrounding landscape and create a connection with the unique blue of the Aegean Sea. The rich variety of RIGIPS plasterboards combined with WEBER ETICS were applied during the construction in order to meet the project demands. All spatial parameters were taken into consideration both during the specification and the installation process.
