Lagonaki Mountain Eco Resort
Lagonaki Mountain Eco Resort is a master plan for a mountain resort in the Republic of Adygea, Russia. The plan places hotels, a cable car station and public infrastructure within a compact area of changing elevations and rocky hills surrounded by relict trees. Valuable natural features were mapped and preserved, and view axes and observation platforms were planned. Tourist routes prevent unauthorized access to protected natural areas. Building forms follow traditional Adyghe houses, with a stone base, a wooden roof and a gallery around the house.
