MODERNITY, SOBRIETY, AND ELEGANCE IN ALICANTE CITY CENTER
The General Marvá Building 3, located on the main avenue that crosses the center of Alicante and next to the emblematic Plaza de Los Luceros, exudes modernity, sobriety, and elegance.
The façade is characterized by terraces and their louvers that direct the gaze from the interior towards this urban epicenter: the fountain with its stars, designed by the Alicante sculptor Daniel Bañuls, the gardens, and the occasional mascletás that mark the Alicante festivals. Enjoy an urban life from inside or outside the building or from its rooftop swimming pool, then take refuge in the inner courtyard sheltered by its large vertical garden.
The General Marvá 3 building speaks of this balance of contrasts that we like so much at ADORAS: its façade is tradition and technology; it is clad with local stone from the Sierra de Bateig, but with double-height aluminum slats. It is on the one hand sober and robust, with its square and forceful volumetry, and at the same time soft and organic with the sinuous forms of the courtyard and the vertical garden.
LANDSCAPING
The Marvá residential complex has two large open-air communal recreation areas.The roof garden has a swimming pool in different shades of green in an elegant composition of vitreous glass mosaic tiles. The solarium is lined with planters that are integrated into the façade as they have the same stone cladding. The exceptional views over the Plaza de Luceros and the Avenida General Marvá extend the perspective all the way to the Mediterranean Sea.
On the ground floor, the focus is on the large vertical garden, a beautiful plant mosaic made up of a wide variety of shrub, perennial and herbaceous species, carefully selected for their aesthetic qualities and their contribution to capturing atmospheric CO2.
Next to the vertical garden, a modern selection of children’s playground equipment creates a play area for the youngest children, under the gaze of their parents resting in the playground area of the courtyard. On the opposite strip, three planters arranged in tiers, adorned with flowering shrubs in shades of pink and blue, cross the enclosure wall and continue into the garden of the atelier, which is revealed from the upper story dwellings, closing the composition in a single line.
