This is a residential neighborhood in Paphos Cyprus called Minthis Hills. I decided to choose this project because I felt it was different than the other projects that Wright has done. This housing development copies many organic structures that optimize views for all residents, as well as privacy. The neighborhood’s layout mirrors plants and the way each section is a branch off of the main stalk. Not only does the layout mirror that of a plant, but the neighborhood lays within the beautiful Tsada Mountains. Wright took advantage of these mountains in order to identify Minthis Hills with the natural physiology of the world around it. There are 500 villas within the complex, as well as a golf course all tucked into the Tsada Mountains.
