The largest training center for athletes in the country was realized at the Dzukija pine forest promenade near Ratnyčėlė stream. It consists of three different sized halls, living quarters, a nutrition block, an amphitheater stadium, and open sports grounds. The basic concept of the complex architecture - the multi-layered composition "dissolves" in a scenic natural environment. Building volumes are divided according to separate functions, arranged on the formed terraces of relief.

The optical effect of the reduction of horizontal volume reduction is achieved on the basis of the visual perspective and the spatial - compositional plans: the higher volumes of the halls are placed behind the lower ones. The plastic one-chord hologram - gallery line integrates volumes into a single whole. The Olympic colors form a color accent. The urban setting of the complex on a newly built street is chosen so that on arrival from the city, the natural forest environment prevails for a long time, and the building opens only at the last moment.
