The Fellini complex is built in Geledzhik on the third line, to the beach, as stated on the realtor's website, 250 m. The first line is divided between the Druzhba sanatorium and the Primorye boarding house, the heir to the Kalinin sanatorium, which has existed here since the 1930s. Since 2005, JSB Bogachkin and Bogachkin has been reconstructing the boarding house and sanatorium - in 2011, among other things, architects built a new 6-storey building in the southern part of its territory. In 2007, they began to design apartments on the second line - a complex of low-rise cottages, which has been operating for five to seven years.

On the third line, a multi-apartment spa house was planned, in contrast to hotels - real estate for sale. In 2005-2006, the project of such a house, 6-storey and sponge-like from terraces covered with a white asymmetric lattice, was developed by Sergey Skuratov. The house zigzagged around the courtyards, opening up to the wind from the sea and views of the blue from the upper floors.

By 2008, the scale of the house had grown: from a 6-storey building with a total area of slightly more than 30,000 m² it almost doubled: it turned into a house of variable number of storeys from 4 to 16.54,000 m²… The authors

2008 project - JSB Bogachkin and Bogachkin. The house became oval, grouped around the courtyard - the shape of the plan, as conceived by the authors, responded to the contours of the Gelendzhik Bay. The project received a silver diploma from the Zodchestvo 2008 festival.

Terraces with pools were provided on the steps of the roofs, and from the side of the sea, the oval gradually lowered in height, so that the views were also supposed to be good. The first two low buildings, along Serafimovich Street, began to be built.

After the banking crisis of 2008, the project on Lunacharskogo Street returned to the project only in 2014, significantly reducing the area - now it is about half the size of the Skuratov project - 17,600 m², and all the houses, in addition to the two started buildings on the side of the sea, turned into townhouses. The layout of the "Oval House" is reminiscent of these two volumes and the outline of the passage through the courtyard - in the best traditions of building Italian cities of the Middle Ages on the plans of Roman hippodromes.

The authors tell about the preserved and completed buildings: “The need to strengthen the structures, the market requirements for apartments and the obligatory presence of terraces and balconies in each apartment demanded significant redevelopment. As a result, there are about 40 completely different apartments in these buildings on 5 floors”.

The hulls combine white plaster with imitation of black Norwegian slate - they planned to use natural, but “fire tests of the original slate subsystem and its delivery delayed the work for more than six months,” and natural stone had to be abandoned. However, the combination of black and white, a stepped silhouette, many bay windows, balconies and terraces, as well as dense flocks of ventilation outlet pipes on the roof help to reduce the presence of 4-storey volumes in space and serve houses as an option for not too large-scale Mediterranean-type buildings.

The townhouses, which have become the mountain of a 12-storey building with a 16-storey tower, are perhaps the cutest part of the project. One has to rely on the seascape from the window, but one must think that the air has remained in place, and the sea is 5 minutes walk.

The architects compared their contour with the surrounding - low - mountains, covering them with asymmetric pitched roofs, which together with white pipes give something Swiss-Alpine.

The roofs are wooden and covered with "black Portuguese tiles". They cover the terraces on the upper floors with deep extensions - which is interesting, unlike most colleagues and contemporaries, among whom it has become a good form to swear at the "glazing of loggias", its authors greet, inspired, in their own words, "projects of" unfinished "housing Alejandro Aravena ", and even report:" Time has shown the viability of this idea for the south, residents are actively settling in and completing terraces. "Although it must be admitted, the degree of incompleteness of Gelendzhik townhouses is much less than that of Aravena - they are much more like" chalets "than South American favelas.

It is not porcelain stoneware that is responsible for the black color in townhouses, but dark tiles, which alternate with inserts imitating limestone, reminiscent of native Gelendzhik rocks, porcelain stoneware. And the authors explain the prevalence of black and white by the name of the complex - Fellini - and a reference to black and white cinema.
