Situated in the highly sought after, private, residential estate of Guadalmina Baja, this stunning design villa is located an easy stroll to the beach and just a few minutes drive to San Pedro de Alcรกntara and the new town boardwalk with its host of activities. Should you want more night time entertainment then Puerto Banus and Marbella Old Town are just a few minutes extra drive.
Double height ceilings in the entrance hall, which has a modern fireplace, provides a welcoming first glimpse of the quality of this property, where even the guest bathroom has an avant garde wash basin feature. One of the many fabulous design features is the Italian Travertine Marble that has been cut into unusually large sections providing a wonderful textured feature.
The external vision of this property is one of sharp, clean lines. The addition of a modern interpretation of a moat was used to create the illusion of a contemporary design villa floating on water. The interiors, by FOC Design Marbella are as visually stunning as any work of art.
The living areas are light, bright and spacious and a focal point is the double sided gas fireplace which provides some additional, cosy heating for the cooler winter months before the underfloor heating is required. The drawing room leads out to covered terraces that flow seamlessly out to the infinity swimming pool.

TURN YOUR Outdoor Space INTO A FABULOUS
Escape By Heidi Gubbins at
ONE OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS ABOUT THE NIGHT IS GETTING LOST IN THE CAPTIVATING VIBRANCE OF A FLAME, EITHER SITTING BY A FIREPLACE ON A COLD WINTER’S NIGHT SIPPING HOT CHOCOLATE OR ENJOYING DINNER OVER A CANDLELIT TABLE OR A BONFIRE AT A BEACH WITH FRIENDS GATHERED ROUND. ADD THE SOUND OF A GUITAR AND SOME PERCUSSION, A TUNE, THE NOISE OF LAUGHER AND PEOPLE HAVING A GOOD TIME, THE REFLECTION OF FIRE IN THE LOOK OF YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER WHILE EXCHANGING IDEAS, STORIES, PASSION - THIS IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT FIRE. THE WARM ENCHANTMENT UNDOUBTEDLY WILL CREATE A FUTURE MEMORY.
Nice™ Series offers great versatility in use either as a free-standing fire column or a mobile table-top fire: the burner is simply lifted out of the vase and can then be placed on any solid, level surface.
So, returning to the point, here are some stylish ideas for your terrace, if you’re looking for some inspiration.
Decoflame has a good range of portable fireplaces. Outdoor built-in burner™ is a manual drop-down burner of 900mm adapted for outdoor use. The flame height can be manually adjusted. The net integrated in the burner allows for the reduction of fuel consumption and therefore the burner can be placed in various outdoor settings. UTOPIA - 46
EcoSmart Stix Designed by acclaimed designer Hiroshi Tsunoda, Stix is a singular contemporary piece that evokes the traditional appearance of a bonfire. The main idea is to create a seamless transition from the inside to the exterior, taking into consideration items such as artwork, lighting and accessories to add a touch of fun and appeal to an outdoor design.
Zinc’s New Outdoor collection Plage is elegant and playful. The pastel tones over fresh patterns will offer a flash of colour and movement to your outdoor space.
UTOPIA - 47
Alex Turco has a cool range of art panels which can be appreciated on three different supports: aluminium composite, pure aluminium (for curved walls and columns) or acylic/ plexiglass (for backlit applications).

DELIGHTFULL’S LIVING & LIGHTING
AH, THOSE GREAT OUTDOORS… Who doesn’t want to take a nap in a beautiful backyard and feel the sun? If you are lucky enough to have an outdoor space you should ensure that it is perfect for when you want to relax.

When it comes to outdoor decoration, choosing the best style is not so easy. You’ve got to stamp your personality on the project and turn it into something special: it should be a mirror of your soul and, of course, full of light. But, how do you decorate your outdoor space and how do you colour coordinate it? DelightFULL can give you a hand. So, are you ready to explore outdoor design lighting?
UTOPIA - 58
LET’S LIGHT IT UP! Summer is almost here, however with an outdoor space, the sunlight is not the only light you will need. There’s a range of different light fixtures that can be adapted for outdoor decor: small lamps, big lamps, modern chandeliers, and so on it goes.

FEEL THE DELIGHTFULL WORLD. FEEL GOOD. Merely mention the name Coltrane and you will feel a deep connection with innovation and the expressive music style of Jazz. Taking these powerful connections created by John Coltrane, our designers have created a monumental design that will withstand time. Using up to three iron tubes, it creates a magical and suave lighting effect in architectural environments. Another expressive design inspired by jazz music, the Galliano wall fixture has a sculptural shape and it is versatile yet contemporary. An extremely balanced design which gets even more beautiful when you see light being cast thought its pipes. With up to three tubes, it produces a unique and gorgeous lighting effect.
… JUST WRITE WITH LIGHT Think bubble gum pink, electric blue and ochre yellow. DelightFULL paints your outdoors in bright colors, alphabet letters and numbers. Yes, you read it right. In addition to the more luxurious line for your outdoors, we also have another unique way to light up your outdoors: it is called the Graphic Collection. And it’s cool, vibrant and fun. It also has a mini version.

The Graphic Collection is ideal for hotels’ and clubs’ outdoor spaces. The aim of these letters, numbers and symbols is to revolutionise the lighting concept. Each illuminated letter is based on a wide selection of iconic type fonts with a DelightFULL twist. www.delightfull.eu

KEEPING IT
Natural FOR SUMMER By KJ Elsdon
WHAT DOES SUMMER MEAN TO YOU? FOR MOST OF US IT REPRESENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO MOVE OUTSIDE AND ENJOY ALL THE COLOURS, TEXTURES AND SCENTS OF THE GARDEN AND, HERE ON THE COAST, THE BEACH. BEARING THAT IN MIND, THE TEAM AT BRABBU HAS LOOKED TO NATURE FOR INSPIRATION WHEN DESIGNING ITS FABULOUS NEW SUMMER COLLECTION. Bringing the outside inside has resulted in some thoroughly creative and inspiring pieces, which will be perfect for those of us on the Costa del Sol, for whom summer is simply the best season of the year – and the time at which we are at our most sociable. To put it simply, the warmer weather encourages us to put our houses on show more often, as we plan dinner parties and barbecues and draw up guest lists.
UTOPIA - 80
The Brabbu team has drawn inspiration from the philosophy of organic architect, Eric Corey Freed who claimed that, “Using Nature as our basis for design, design must grow, as Nature grows, from the inside out.” Following his lead, these new wonderful new pieces of furniture will add a welcome touch of nature to the most modern, minimalist home. The striking shape of the CAY side table has been inspired by the shifting forms of molten lava, while the Maree sofa brings to mind a landscape softened by the gentle undulation of waves. We especially loved the wonderful APIS dining table, which brings to mind the trunk of a massive, ancient tree, especially when it was teamed with the SAKI pendant light, which made us imagine a bamboo forest.
If you really are feeling regal, then the velvet BOURBON bar chair will suit your refined sensibilities
If you’re planning to throw a big party for all your friends and family Brabbu has designed a range of bar chairs that will add a touch of elegance of any social event. The STOLA bar chair takes its name from the robes worn by women in Ancient Rome, while the PLUM counter stool represents the sense of luxury and opulence evoked by that gorgeous colour. If you really are feeling regal, then the velvet BOURBON bar chair will suit your refined sensibilities – not to mention impressing your guests. Completing the range is the DAVIS bar chair, its quirky shape and unusual colour bringing to mind the sea off the East Coast of Antarctica. Taking inspiration from the colours, textures and shapes of nature at its most beautiful, this modern yet classic collection of furniture from those clever and creative people at Brabbu will never go out of fashion and will add a touch of prestige to the most casual gathering.

My Andalusian
HOUSE PROJECT by Päivi Halt WHEN INTERIOR ARCHITECT PÄIVI HALT’S FAMILY MOVED TO SOUTHERN SPAIN SHE FOUND THE IDEAL PROPERTY TO TURN HER DREAM OF A VILLA IN TUSCANY INTO AN IDEAL SPANISH HOME. HERE SHE CHARTS HER EXCITING JOURNEY FROM FINDING THE PERFECT PROPERTY THROUGH TURNING IT INTO A FAMILY RESIDENCE THAT TICKS ALL THE BOXES. A DEMOLITION JOB! This week has been an amazing start to our project. On Monday afternoon the house started to look more orange than red. Every corner was full of guys with orange vests carrying furniture to the storage or to the skip. Already, on the same day, the house started to look very empty. On Tuesday the walls of the master bedroom were down (I’ll explain my plan there later) and by Wednesday the kitchen walls had disappeared. So what is all that talk about mañanaworkmen? If the guys continue at this speed, I’ll be the one struggling seriously with the timetable for finding my fixed furniture! Inevitably, I’ve had to rethink some ideas. The fireplace chimney only reached the next floor and in the master bedroom it changed into a rectangular shaped duct made of bricks. We decided not try to fix the chimney, but replace it and renew the old fireplace.
UTOPIA - 92
Quite often it’s much cheaper to build a new one than repair the old. And this is true with houses too, but hopefully not in our case. We also opened the exterior wall to see how the house had been built. The walls are made of two brick walls with a good gap in the middle. This is the correct way to built here I was told, because it prevents damp. I can believe it as the air inside the house has always been very fresh and rooms never too cold. So it must work as a good insulation too!
IDEAS
MY DINING ROOM DESIGNS Between the kitchen and living room there is a dining room. It’s a good size room with beautiful Andalucian floor tiles. This room, together with the living room, really only needs white paint. I’m also going to remove the glass doors in the living and dining rooms that are facing the corridor beside the courtyard. This way the whole house will feel more opened up and the flow between the rooms will be much better and all the rooms will be connected. The only question here is - what shall we do with the extra space? The real change in the dining room will be the atmosphere.
paint, so after white washing it will be just perfect. Hopefully we’ll get a lot of use from it and create several happy new memories with our friends.
From here, you can enjoy the view of the park and the courtyard. Normally we use this room when it is night and I believe we’ll enjoy the beautifully lit courtyard with the water feature more than the dark forest, therefore we decided not to add any more windows facing towards the nature park. The room is very bright, even with the red
Our dinner table is always full of computers, piles of paper, the kids’ homework and at the moment there’s even a sewing machine as my daughter has started a new hobby. I have this picture in my mind of a clean, clear, white dining room with only a couple of very well chosen pieces of decoration. But, how to make it happen in reality is a challenge? First of all, we’ll have an office and it’s going to be downstairs. So, let’s see how much time I’ll spend there. For sure the sewing machine will be moved into the office and so will the kids homework. My plan then is that the dining room furniture will simply consist of a large table with comfortable chairs and maybe a nice side table to add the decoration. The perfect living room
When it comes to furnishing a dining room, it is always a challenge. How do you decorate a dining room so it’s cosy enough to be used every day and fancy enough to be changed into a setting for a dinner party? For me it’s important that all rooms are used every day. Your house shouldn’t be designed just for visitors. In our family, the dining room is also frequently used as an office. But now, I’m getting tired of trying to keep it tidy.
All these years I’ve been fighting against modern, simple Scandinavian architecture and design in our house in Finland. But here we are and the only design style that I can see in our house here in Spain is very white and natural spiced up with Spanish or Moroccon decorations and textiles. UTOPIA - 93
Simplicity is the ultimate form of Sophistication
Clean, but comfortable, and enough patterns and colours to hide stains! In the living room I can see us as a family sitting around the fireplace with the dogs snoring on the sofa. I would like to create a space where we can relax without TV. TV in our family is only used for watching movies, drama series and playing games. So, instead of adding that big black box into the living room, I’d rather have the TV room somewhere else, where you can have a good sound system and sound insulation too. We have spent many evenings in the living room together, but still all doing our own thing with phones or iPads. It sounds a bit sad, but then again, we are together and sharing the things that we see and do. So, instead of my husband replying to work emails, me searching for nice interior pictures, my daughter chatting on Instagram and my son playing Minecraft, but all in our own rooms, I’d rather create the space where we can do all these things together. I also strongly believe that it’s very important to have the children near us when they use these new devices and go on the Internet. Then you can keep an eye on them and you are nearby to advise them as well. The question that arises here is, what is the purpose of the living room today? Will it be just an empty, nice looking room, if you dare to move the TV away? Also, because the weather here is so good, I’m also wondering how much we will use the living room in the end? What kind of UTOPIA - 94
living room areas will we have outdoors? When it’s very hot, will we prefer to stay inside or sit outside in the shade? When we’re finally living in our new house, I’ll let you know if we use the living room at all! Next time I’ll show you my plans for the bathrooms, the first floor and the master bedroom suite. Until then… Best wishes,

BRING IT
TO THE
TABLE
TABLES ARE AN ESSENTIAL PART OF OUR LIVES. A TABLE MAY BE THE EXTRAVAGANT CENTREPIECE OF A GRAND DINING ROOM OR IT MAY BE A MORE HUMBLE KITCHEN TABLE FOR EVERYDAY DINING THAT WE ALSO USE TO SPREAD OUT OUR WORK, THE KIDS’ HOMEWORK, GAMES, SEWING AND AN ASSORTMENT OF OTHER THINGS THAT IT TYPICALLY BECOMES A REPOSITORY FOR. But the tables designed by Lisbon-based designer Marco Sousa Santos are works of art and expert craftsmanship that deserve to be the highlight of any room they are in and never overlooked. As a designer, Sousa is firmly rooted in the generation of new Portuguese designers who have built a strong international reputation for the country’s contemporary design styles. His projects and products have been displayed in the world’s top institutions such as the V&A in London, MOMA store in
New York, the Triennale in Milan and Salon de Meuble in Paris. He is also a Professor of Industrial Design at the faculty of Fine Arts in Lisbon and has forged a number of dynamic partnerships with other Portuguese designers to produce his brand new Branca-Lisboa furniture label, of which his tables are among the highlights.

SEMBA ON THE OTHER HAND IS CLEARLY INFLUENCED BY THE TRADITIONAL AFRICAN DJEMBE DRUM AND SOUSA’S INTERPRETATION REFLECTS THE ETHNIC ART ELEMENTS OF THE ORIGINAL DRUM IN A REFINED AND CONTEMPORARY WAY. UTOPIA - 100
Sousa’s Melody table undoubtedly nods its head to the Cubist movement formed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque with its asymmetrical planes that recall the movement’s attempt to capture the three-dimensional object in two dimensions. Semba on the other hand is clearly influenced by the traditional African djembe drum and Sousa’s interpretation reflects the ethnic art elements of the original drum in a refined and contemporary way. The Pacific Brass trio of tables conjoined is reminiscent of the 60s and 70s design ethos, while the Beat side table in goldcovered brass contains elements of a
child’s toy drum combined with ideas from the Jazz Age. His larger table designs are influenced by many sources from Scandinavian minimalism to French Provençal country home styling; these are never overt in his work, which is highly original, but there is just enough of the original elements in Sousa’s work for nondesigners to recognise where his idea may have come from. Sousa’s products are primarily made using a variety of different woods: some are solid oak while others may be corkwood and many of them have brass and lacquered finishes. His exciting approach to furniture design is currently making huge ripples among the contemporary design community and it looks as if his Branca Lisboa label may become iconic pieces of the future, just like Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chair. bymarcosousa.com
