The Noosa Residential Complex draws
inspiration from the traditional architecture
of Kish Island and the coral reef ecosystem.
Just as coral reefs provide shelter and
connectivity for diverse marine life, the
complex prioritizes creating well-ventilated
outdoor environments with a focus on
connectivity. The architectural form mirrors
the organic growth of corals and uses
modular hexagonal cells to regulate the
dimensions of the apartment units. This
design not only ensures optimal airflow
but also maximizes panoramic views of the
island for residents.
While upholding its commitment to
connectivity and sustainability, the complex
successfully reduces solar gain through
algorithmic optimization techniques and
strategic facade shading. The Noosa
Residential Complex offers comfortable,
functional, and eco-friendly living spaces
that harmoniously integrate with the natural
beauty of Kish Island.
