RE: Habana Golf Club, a place for healthy enjoyment [ESP-ENG]

Fantastic feature of architecture @lileisabel! If I'm not mistaken, I believe this is the first time a golf course was featured in the Architecture+Design Community. Hence, it's a great privilege to have experienced one virtually from the beautiful country of Cuba! Thank you for showcasing it here! 😊

I understand that it's simply not easy to design a full-scale golf course as there are plenty of complex elements that need to be considered for a smooth sailing operation. If there was one aspect of that distinguished establishment that you'd like to see improved, what would it be and why?

Hi @storiesoferne , this place dazzled me just by standing in front of that golf course and my sight was lost in that greenery, also very attentive workers and see the veneration they feel for him, as soon as I heard them speak with that vehemence I could not resist my impulse and at the moment I thought that everyone should know that in Cuba despite the lack of culture about this sport there was this little place, hence the first thing I notice that it lacks is that it is not a widespread place, very few know it and it is a shame. There are several things that I would change because I am a little demanding hahaha. The columns that imitate logs at the entrance of Hole 19 are undoubtedly very rough and also have a cement color that takes away the originality of the wood veneer of that place that I loved, I did not like the benches of the interior furniture, with tables and chairs of wood enough and some high stools for the bar. I would remove the signs that are stuck on all the doors, they detract from them, plus the wooden ones need a touch up. That large parking area is not delimited or painted, everyone who enters and leaves the facility does so, so it is the first thing you see and gives the appearance of abandonment when in fact the course is very well maintained. The extension to 18 holes would be impossible because the adjoining lands are close to avenues and they solve it by going around the course twice. But if what they have was given more visibility and promotion it would be much better for the facility and all the effort they make to have the course well maintained would be much better rewarded.

Oh wow! Thanks a lot for your interesting insights @lileisabel! That's alright, I'm not interpreting your extensive ideas as demanding, lol. 🤣 It's just a matter of being more critically constructive in terms of architecture and design recommendations. Thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughts! 😊👍
