the 'jesolo lido condominium', a series of residential and hotel high-rises designed by new york-based-practice
richard meier architects is nearing completion in jesolo, italy. the beach-side complex consists of a low profile
inland building and ten story structure closer to the coast, offering panoramic vistas of the adjacent adriatic sea.
oriented for the pristine views, a spine connects the separated entities acting as a path for observation, resting
and exercise along with direct water access. the program will be distributed between the cumulative area of
7,400 square meters.

the external appearance responds to the existing encompassing residential context of the nearby village, in addition to allocating
the ground floors for the apartments and private gardens. the upper levels contain the penthouse units with unobstructed views of
the ocean. the clean rectangular volumes are clad with a system of white louvers which have been pulled away from the glass facade
to effectively provide passive shading at all sun angles.
