House Keeping & Maintenance

Accessibility was a major problem in the site which was solved by a strategically placed vehicular riprap ramp that directs the user to the lower ground with a scenic sunrise in the pacific ocean.

The 6 meter natural drop was made accessible by designing a 25% grade ramp.

The Client required a site plan that promotes a laidback communal area that revolves around the existing Main Villa.

The Architect designed an infinity pool that visually connects the entry point to the open sea creating a seamless sightline in the communal area. Cabanas are placed as lodging for guests promoting privacy between guests and owner.

Lanai

A four-bedroom, two-storey, beach-front resthouse designed to blend the interior to the outdoor environment; maximizing natural elements and vistas without sacrificing user privacy.

The client requested a modern and light design with earth tones and a red accent. The designer’s solution is to visually balance the material selection by using dark wood in the lower level, and lighter tones on the upper floor.
