A wide staircase as a harmonious architectural element leading from the pool to the top floor. On the roof, there is a sitting area with a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains and the sea.
The large cube of the main building seems to split up into smaller cubes that descend to the sea. This construction creates a seamless transition between the highest and lowest points of the architectural complex, visually reducing the size of the buildings.
The houses are located along a natural plateau and the focus of the design was on the roofs, which blend in seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. The staircases echo the rectangular shape of the buildings.
Repetitive elements dominate the layout: courtyards adjoining the living rooms, descending smoothly in step with the rock formations. The covered pergola protects against northerly winds and overlooks the living room and pool.
