​​

This project is a single-story modern villa conceived as a horizontal volume that melds seamlessly with the ground plane. A broad overhanging roof blurs the line between interior and exterior spaces.

​

• Architectural Massing & Materials
  – The exterior alternates natural black volcanic stone cladding with smooth white plaster. Stone columns and wall panels lend both structural clarity and a local, tactile character.
  – The deep cantilevered eave controls the sun’s east-west path: shading the interiors in summer while welcoming the lower winter sun.

• ​

• Indoor–Outdoor Continuity
  – Wide sliding glass doors fuse the terrace with the living room, dining area, and kitchen into one fluid space. Daylight and views flow uninterrupted throughout.
  – A steel-framed bamboo pergola on the terrace weaves a delicate canopy of shade, casting gentle light patterns over the tropical planting below.

• ​

• Terrace & Pool Layout
  – The slender plan positions the pool directly in front of the façade, creating a calming focus on water movement.
  – Lounge seating and daybeds by the pool echo the warm wooden furniture palette found inside.

• ​

• Spatial Organization
  – From the entrance onward, a choreography of “cool” stone and “warm” wood textures guides circulation.
  – Living, dining, and kitchen zones are distinct yet lie on a single plane for a continuous experience; curved partition walls mark transitions to the bedrooms and bathrooms.

• ​

• Private Retreats
  – Guest bedrooms and the master suite occupy a separate wing, each with large openings onto the garden that ensure both privacy and connection.
  – A small interior courtyard, planted with native greenery beneath a skylight, functions as a mini tropical oasis, carrying daylight deep into the plan.

• ​

In sum, this villa blends traditional stone masonry with contemporary minimalism to offer a luminous, open-plan home in constant dialogue with its natural surroundings.
