12 miles off the coast of Abu Dhabi lies the island of Nurai. Dror Benshetrit spent only 5 weeks in coming up with the plan for the island, which plays on the concept of a carpet. Tucked away under the green blanket of grass, the beach-front estates on the island promise the luxury of peace and solitude. The Water Villas were conceived as chandeliers suspended from a structural frame. They are approached by pathways that diverge off a central pier and are arranged corner to corner in such a way as to maximize private views. By camouflaging the built structures by blending them into topography, Dror has created the ultimate balance between the ideal of isolation and material comfort.
