PALMERA
BEACH CLUB
RAK
Located in the prime and lively heart of Murjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, this plot is envisioned to become a truly unique beach club that stands out in the region. The overarching vision for the club is to create a bohemian and natural atmosphere, which will be achieved by incorporating organic materials such as wood, reeds, and fabric for various elements like the huts, sunbeds, and lounges. This approach will also extend to the design of the bar and restaurant, with an emphasis on minimizing the use of heavy construction materials to ensure a harmonious connection with the earth. Furthermore, the DJ stage will be strategically elevated, utilizing the natural contours of the site, making it an inviting feature that can be appreciated from both the seaside and the main road, enhancing the overall experience for visitors.

All the buildings are in Ground level, with difference in heights to play with the skyline of the project, using natural building methods such as rammed earth, and using wooden features with shades to keep most of the project areas in shade.
The Layout sketch in the left side is the zoning layout sketch where it shows how the areas shall be allocated to meet the project needs, between hotel operation, guest needs, food & beverages, hotel functions, and open spaces in between. The layout sketch on the right side is the sketch of the master plan layout of the project, showing the actual intent of the design forms, number of units, and approximate areas of each space, together with spaces allocated for bars and sun beds on the beach and the allocation of the Marina.

Contouring for best views
The sketch above is a longitudinal section sketch on the whole plot, which shows the leveling in the whole project starting from the main road till the end of the beach shore touching the sea water. The Project has been design based on multiple steps, the highest point is the hotel reception lobby building, which is in the beginning of the project from the main road side and from that point steps are going down, each step is lower by around 30 to 60 cm until it reach to the sea shore, this way all the project can have a direct access to the magnificent water front view, also the buildings and the units are oriented towards the prevailing wind direction and to receive the sun indirectly most of the day and provide shade to the rooms most of the day, in that case the heat gain is reduced to the minimum to reach the highest levels of sustainability and efficiency in the project.
