COMPETITION FOR THE URBAN-ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT DESIGN FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE DELTA AND PORTO BAROŠ AREA IN RIJEKA
Possibility of using natural water by working the site topography, natural and artificially. The water would be used for watering green areas, even for sanitary use if treated adequately.
Vegetation helps to reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. The incorporation of a green central area allows to reduce CO2 and create a unique micro-climate within.
Two sides of the perimeter faces a high density road witch produces high levels of noise. The artificial topography and the existence of a natural micro climate inside might help to reduce it.
Possible use of renewable energy: Use of photovoltaic and solar panels for energy production and water heating.
Vegetation helps to reduce high temperatures as well to control the high humidity of climate. The use of vegetation in the ventral area and the use multilayer façades helps to improve indoor optimum and comfortable conditions.

The presence of strong winds can be controlled and use is the site. By carefully studying and analysing building dispositions might help us to control winds and creates a unique micro climate witch provides clean air within. Possibility of wind energy to create electricity at some levels.

uses Flowing down to the sea, protected by the mountains and set in the busy, economic centre of the city, the Rječina Delta has all of the right conditions to assume an outstanding position, not only within the context of the city of Rijeka, but in Kvarner Bay and the North Adriatic itself. Rather than being a city of transit and the border city of yesteryear, this territory should be a place for people to stay and a place of union… between the land and the sea, between the existing city and the city of the future, between the city and its citizens. … for which the use of 3 components, which lie at the root of our proposal, are fundamental in its construction: nature, dynamics and experiences. This situation grants this territory a unique environmental richness, particularly in terms of contact with water, solar exposition and surrounding landscape The urban proposal developed seeks to maximise the potential and mitigate the main conditioning factors of the territory, in which the basic concept adopted was decisive: extension of the green interior to the sea.
green structure The Delta is the missing link in the city for it all to make sense and function in harmony as one. Besides being the only area available for the implementation of an emblematic project on a scale capable of marking an era. The proposal presented seeks to address this challenge, enhancing the formal and functional connection of the intervention area with the surrounding territory, especially with the historic centre, with the port area and with the future area of urban expansion to the east. A new centrality, as is intended for the Delta, is synonymous with intense urban life, during the whole day and throughout the whole year, and, consequently, with concentration in the territory, not only of the basic functions of living, working and having fun, but of some exceptional elements, on a metropolitan scale, which help to affirm the vocation of the territory and to define its own identity.

Porto Baroš Marina The Porto Baroš Marina is designed in line with the revaluation of the quality of the existing site and presents new facilities pursuant to the project task. The existing port is enlarged and has approximately 500 berths. The main marina building is situated on the ground floor of the existing warehouse on the north waterfront of Porto Baroš. The existing warehouse, with two additional floors, is converted into a mixed-use building. A new office wing of the existing warehouse connects the existing custom building and warehouse. This building closes in, from the west and south side, a new square situated on the south side of the old market. The existing canopy on the south side of the warehouse is extended in the traditional “town loggia” that follows the waterfront of the port, and connects a mixed-use building with the hotel building and the Mrtvi Kanal bridge.
Delta Hotel
Multi-purpose Hall
Aquarium
Standing out from the other buildings and assuming a major role on Rijeka’s seafront, the hotel is regarded as the Delta landmark, corresponding to an architectural project of reference. It will have an approximate capacity of 350 rooms and will be fitted with support installations for events and conferences.
Integrated within the central plaza and strongly related with the exterior, this equipment will be geared towards a very wide range of cultural and promotional events, complementing the offer of the Croatian National Theatre.
Located in the Porto Baroš area, near to the marina and in full contact with the sea, the aquarium will be an emblematic building located at one end of the waterfront walkway running along the Mrtvi Kanal.
