Materials Used:

This house is claded in stained black wood with timber wood between the window partitions, concrete stairs link an upper outdoor terrace and concrete furniture.

 Aim and Goals:

The aim was to create more open space than the site first offered by reclaiming as much outdoor space as possible. The main goal was to design a villa that matches the clients personality, to create a covered outdoor space and to satisfy the clients desire to wake up to the viewof the ocean.

Plans, Elevations and Orientation:

On both storeys, the utility and service rooms are located along the northern side of the house, while the living areas open out to the south and the view to the sea. As a consequence, there are very few punctures on the northern side, and large floor-to-ceiling windows face the south.
