La Manga del Mar Menor: a posible utopia
In the 60's began the urbanization of La Manga del Mar Menor for tourism, an area so unspoiled and idyllic. Urban development was entrusted to the architects Antonio Bonet Castellana and Josep Puig Torné. The plan assumed conceptual change in tourism, from the traditional holidays to mass tourism. They studied the native landscape values and opted for the concentration of the intervention by building autonomous units sufficiently far from each other and arranged along a linear axis which is the area of La Manga, preserving the maximum possible territory and achieving the profitability of the operation by increasing the height of buildings. The separation of units allowed to enjoy the scenery and idyllic conditions of the situation between two seas, assuming a major attraction and durability over time, and advancing and advocating the precepts of sustainability and conservation of the landscape. ; Peer Reviewed
