Syncrosfera: a hotel for athletes. deportistas
The most innovative in 2021. This was the view taken by the Spanish Association of Hotel Directors (AEDH) assessing
the hotel’s unique concept: high sports performance, the high technology applied to achieve it and the energy
efficiency of its facilities. ‘Ébano Arquitectura de Interiores’ has created an interior design in keeping with the uniqueness
49
of the hotel.
It has rooms equipped with hypoxia systems
that simulate high mountain altitude conditions,
with low oxygen concentrations and CO2
regulators; It has a complete gym and a clinical
space equipped with a hyperbaric chamber
and the latest innovations in physiotherapy
equipment.
Syncrosfera, in Pedreguer (Alicante), is focused
on the education, training, recovery, rest
and high performance of athletes. Its founder,
Alexander Kolobnev, was an Olympic medalist
in Beijing 2008.
His experience after a serious injury led him
to create a hotel that would combine sports
practice and recovery.
Volume tricks
Joel Serra Martínez has designed the interior
spaces of this curved building that has adapted
to the terrain and integrates into the Montgó
Natural Park. The ground floor is a large
open space that opens to a large terrace: “The
choice of materials was intended to enhance a
minimalist design, through straight lines and
geometric works together with a warm touch
obtained through the use of wood”. White,
anthracite, and blue from the furniture of
Beltá & Frajumar complete a range of serene
tones, supported by the neutral and soft colour
of the large-format porcelain floor tiles.
A game of volumes and lines that break the
geometry of the space. The anthracite black
ceilings support large suspended plaster trays,
“which delimit spaces and serve for the passage
of installations”.
The reception desk and its back wall, in krion,
reveal their faceted geometry to a vertical
garden, located in front of them and a green
mural with two suspended seats provide an
aesthetic counterpoint to the environment. As
a common thread, wooden slats attached to
the walls follow one another on the ground
floor, the cafeteria and the rooms. And separating
the cafeteria environments there are
large wooden lattices that act as visual partitions
between spaces presided over by the
iconic Vertigo lamps, designed by Constance
Guisset. On the ground floor, three floors of
rooms follow this interior design theme; and
in the basement, the jewel of the hotel: the
sports-area with a gym, clinic, spa and a semi-
Olympic swimming pool covered with an oval
dome. The haven of high performance is found
in Pedreguer.
