Project Overview
A luxury villa situated on a beachfront, designed for clients who desired an elegant retreat with resilience against the coastal environment. The project focused on creating a modern, luxurious aesthetic while ensuring durability against the elements such as saltwater corrosion, high winds, and humidity.
Project Challenges
Building in a coastal location required special attention to material durability, as saltwater and wind erosion can quickly degrade standard construction materials. Additionally, the clients wanted to take full advantage of the ocean views while ensuring the home’s durability.
Project Solution
The design team used marine-grade materials for the villa’s exterior to ensure resistance to corrosion. The layout emphasized large glass windows to offer panoramic views of the ocean, while wind-resistant landscaping protected the property. Interior finishes included natural materials like driftwood, limestone, and marble, creating a coastal aesthetic that complemented the environment.
Key features:
- Exterior Materials: Marine-grade steel, hurricane-resistant glass, and durable cladding.
- Interior Design: Coastal-inspired themes using natural stone, driftwood, and light color palettes.
- Energy Solutions: Solar panels and energy-efficient heating and cooling systems.
