The diverse parks and year-round accessible environmental infrastructure of the New Anapa resort

embody a vision of a new, modern, and innovative Russia that embraces the future while cherishing traditional family values. This combination creates a new cultural identity rooted in Russian hospitality, shaping a fresh spiritual code for the nation.

to form a resort model that will attract year-round tourist traffic, which in turn creates a sustainable business model attractive to investors.

Key elements of the designed space and the competitive advantages of the project: Technical base for the Transportation and Transfer Station, marina and heliport; Service and maintenance area (training hotel, service housing, ambulance station, EMERCOM, police, engineering and technology services); Yacht marina; Small Architectural Formation "Time Portal"; Eco-trails (8 km), bike paths (35 km) and hiking trails (85 km).

The central park space, anchored by the "Innovative Russia" theme park, takes center stage as the focal point of the resort.

This vibrant destination offers an extensive array of options for promoting a healthy lifestyle and engaging in sports, including a comprehensive digital environment. The resort's offerings encompass the creative ambiance of the Old Town, both outdoor and indoor water parks with thermal facilities, a conference center with a greenhouse, a marina accommodating 300 yachts, a wind sports center, museums, a modern "Visit Center," cutting-edge engineering and transportation solutions, and much more. These elements collectively lay the foundation for the resort's effective development.

The second place was taken by a Consortium led by Mosinzhproekt Institute LLC.

Consortium members:

• Mosinzhproekt Institute LLC (Moscow, Russia);
• Wowhaus LLC (Moscow, Russia);

Short-term goal of the project: based on the existing natural, cultural, and resort resources, lay the foundation for a year-round resort by creating basic infrastructure, priority resort and conservation of existing valuable assets.

Medium-term goal: using the basic infrastructure, create year-round attractions that meet the needs of Russian tourists, diversify the hotel stock and socio-cultural program in accordance with identified tourist directions.

Long-term goal: create a year-round popular family resort in New Anapa, offering infrastructure for all types of recreation throughout the year and serving up to 4.5 million tourists annually with an average resort capacity utilization of over 80%.

The main competitive advantage and key stylistic idea of our project lies in creating a bright, memorable, and modern architectural image.

The third place was taken by a Consortium led by Studio 44 LLC.

Consortium members:

• Studio 44 LLC (St. Petersburg, Russia);
• Modul LLC (St. Petersburg, Russia).

The general architectural and planning solution, as well as functional zoning are formed based on the features of the terrain. The placement of different typologies of facilities depends on the heterogeneity of the topography, which includes several landscape zones. Public spaces are placed on the uplands, hotel and sanatorium facilities are located along the slopes.

The structure of public spaces continues the typology of the ancient polis. Their inherent polycentricity allows for multiple focal points-attractors within a 15-minute walking distance. All functional parts of the resort are united by a chain of interconnected public areas - pedestrian streets, promenades, squares and parks. The central public space - the Forum - is the centre of social life.

The main town-planning solution develops the planning typology of "reasonable", "exemplary" cities, developed during the town-planning reform of Empress Catherine II. Such an approach is based on the principle that picturesque development, which gently follows landforms, is integrated into an overall structure consisting of spacious squares and wide, rectilinear streets.

Water is the central force of this landscape. It surrounds the territory from three sides, imparting distinct characters to the shores. The "Three Waters" create the diversity of coastal features: expansive beaches, picturesque mudflats, and soft, blooming estuaries.

The polis consists of seven diverse territories: a welcoming zone, marina, business district, seaside hotels, sanatoriums on the estuary, a quiet landscape park. These zones are connected by a water-green corridor, the river bed, a key landscape dominant of the project. Within the polis, zones are linked by public transportation lines—from BRT to small landscape shuttles— while private transportation remains in a designated buffer between external and internal circulation.

The polis stands on the frontier of three waters—closer to the shore, their character manifests more strongly in the architectural form, morphotype, landscape solutions, and functions of anchor objects. The appearance of zones is primarily inspired by landscape features and is determined by contextual considerations.
