A modern family resort

Bay Arch has designed the main building of SeaWest, a family resort in Nymindegab, on the west coast of Denmark. 

The concept of the architecture was to create something that blended in with the landscape but also could fit all of the modern needs of a family resort. The structure consists mainly of a glass façade with grass-covered roof and the building quickly received a nickname, The Transparent Dune, as it clearly mimics the grass-covered dunes that are so characteristic of the west coast. SeaWest covers a building area of 9.000 m2 and includes sport hall, water world, bowling alley, restaurants, wellness, shops and much more.

En moderne feriepark for hele familien

Bay Arch har designet hovedbygningen til ferieresortet Seawest ved Nymindegab på den danske vestkyst. Ideen bag konceptet var at skabe en arkitektur, der med respekt for landskabet stadig kunne huse alle de faciliteter der skal til i en moderne feriepark med vandland, wellness, fitness, sportshal og –baner, restauranter og meget mere. Bygningen består primært af en glas facade, der brydes af det grønne græsklædte tag – en struktur der har givet SeaWest kælenavnet Den Transparente Klit, da den tydligt mimer de så karakteristiske sandklitter fra vestkysten.
