Tenerife, Spain

The project embraces different proceedings in a hotel resort located in Tenerife's southern area, in the Canary Islands.

The project has been built in different stages, with different scale procedures and ignoring at the beginning the real magnitude of the hole renovation, but with a clear idea from the very beginning: clearing up the pre-existence and recovering the Flamingo's Hotel lost identity: elegance, wellness, and exclusivity.

For this, the white color is used as a base, the bamboo, the basalt stone – vernacular mineral from the area- and the glass, combined with punctual colorful elements and emphasizing the "Flamingo." This way, a Master Plan is settled for future interventions.

The team has designed an extension in its east-south-west corner; the aim of this extension is to generate a transition between the organic and the regular facade that at once generates a wall ending in the south facade.
