DOORS , WINDOWS & FITTINGS
" The original 1000m 2 building was designed in a traditional European style , which was arranged in a way that overly divided the space and was not well integrated with its natural surroundings ."
A WINDING PATH THROUGH LIGHT AND SHADOW
The entrance hall , defined on the exterior through richly toned teak panels , is a space for residents to gather themselves and shift their mindset . Upon stepping through the door , the oak floor and walls clad in wood veneer unfold and lead the eye into the rooms beyond , while creating a natural sense of warmth and comfort .
The tall , narrow proportions of the windows provide dramatic views of the exterior landscape , blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor . At the same time , the space retains its own clear and concise character , defined by consistent spatial proportions and combinations of materials , allowing its residents to focus on their daily lives within . The building ’ s structure dictates the shape and layout of the space , skillfully defining different functional areas , giving the villa a spatially layered beauty that is also derived from pragmatic logic . The changing needs of daily life are accommodated in this series of open and free spaces , creating a home which is both beautiful and adaptable .
The designer has precisely designed every aspect of the villa down to the centimeter , sculpting the architectural structure and employing exquisite craftsmanship in the details to create a minimalist interior of aesthetic refinement .
