The aim of the thesis is to analyze theory, theoretical and built projects of an underground architecture and implement collected information in an architectural project. The reasoning for the design of an underground architecture usually lies in the context. Out of three types of context for an underground architecture – dense urban, historical and natural - highly sensitive natural context, Curonian Spit, is chosen. SPA center is designed in the territory of Kopgalis battery – the peaks of protective dune ridge are covered with the roof. Cavities are formed in the roof, through which the sand comes in and fill glass cones, designed according to the sand-fall studies. Sand-covered building not only preserves the landscape, gives meaning for the military heritage, but also conveys the most important feature of the Curonian Spit – its constant change, which manifests itself with the sand movement. Guidelines for the design of underground objects, visuality in architecture, the features of the Curonian Spit and sand features are also described in the analytical part.
