The old Dangube village consist of typical wooden, vernacular buildings on the beautiful green plateau on the top of the hill over Banovina, with excellent view. The concept was to restore the existing buildings and convert them into a housing capacity, and add a central building consisting of a restaurant, a conference hall, and some recreation and leisure facilities. The village and the new building are the tourist development for the company needs.
The new building is designed in contemporary architectural language, most of it sunken in the steep hillside. The roofs are flat and green, and from the old village side it doesn't look like the building, but more as the continuity of the existing green plateau, a landscape.  For the same reason of invisibility, the building is narrow and located in the hill contour direction. Such position also enables the extensive view from the building.
