Lura Resorts 1, 2 & 3: Mediterranean Modernism in Albania's Emerging Riviera

Architectural Evolution Through Three Distinctive Resort Communities The Lura Resort developments in Gjiri i Lalzit represent a significant architectural progression in Albania’s coastal development, where contemporary design principles and natural integration converge to create three complementary yet distinct resort communities. This ambitious collection of developments along Durrës’ emerging riviera showcases an evolution in architectural approach—from the traditional villa-focused Lura 1 to the more densely arranged Lura 2, culminating in the sophisticated contemporary design of AQUA by Lura Resort (Lura 3).
Each phase of development features a distinctive architectural character while maintaining a cohesive white color palette that creates visual harmony across the broader development. From the pine-nestled villas of Lura 1 to the sleek modernist forms of AQUA by Lura, the collection demonstrates a thoughtful progression in both design sophistication and amenity offerings while consistently prioritizing integration with the spectacular natural setting of Albania’s Adriatic coastline.

Lura Resort: Traditional Mediterranean with Natural Integration

The inaugural phase of Lura development embraces a traditional Mediterranean approach with contemporary influences, creating a low-density resort community where individual villas are thoughtfully nestled among existing pine trees approximately 150 meters from the beach. The architectural language features clean white volumes with subtle traditional references, including pitched roof elements and generous covered terraces that create seamless indoor-outdoor living environments.

AllGlass Solutions: Evolving with Each Development Phase

Lura 1: Traditional-Contemporary Balance

Custom window solutions for villa residences that respect traditional proportions while providing contemporary performance, with specialized sliding systems for terrace connections that create seamless indoor-outdoor living.

AQUA by Lura: Architectural Statement Glass

Sophisticated structural glazing and curtain wall applications that create the development's distinctive contemporary expression, including specialized solutions for indoor pool environments and dramatic black-framed window compositions.

Lura 2: Expanded Transparency

Premium glazing systems with increased dimensions, including corner applications and floor-to-ceiling solutions that maximize views while maintaining thermal performance in the Mediterranean climate.

Increased Density with Maintained Privacy

The striking white structure with black-framed windows creates a bold contrast, while sail-like tensile structures around the pool area reinforce the maritime theme.

AllGlass has partnered with the Lura developments throughout their evolution, providing increasingly sophisticated glazing solutions that support each phase’s distinctive architectural character while ensuring consistent performance excellence. Our systems have evolved alongside the development’s architectural ambition, from traditional villa applications to contemporary structural solutions.
