Client Brief
The clients wanted a place to get away from the demands of daily life. A place that would feel more like a vacation home – devoid of clutter. Importance was placed on framed views and clean lines.
Project description
Composed of a simple palette of earthy and warm materials juxtaposed against the crisp lines andthe contrast of white walls, Villa Vista offers a clutter free sophisticated living space.
The experience of the villa is composed of framed vistas and screened spaces. The entry foyer opens directly to the back of the villa is framed with a full height wood slats that simultaneously screens the upstairs private sitting room from direct sight. The adjacent slat wall in the corridor offers a balance to the staircase while also concealing a secret door into the guest bathroom and bedroom.
The symmetricalkitchen with hidden appliances presides over the dining room and livingroom that spans the entire width of the house. Large deep-inset single paned windows frame exterior landscaping features – the ancient olive tree perched on the edge of the pool and the outdoor seating area tucked into the lush plantings.
