The private residence opens itself to the panorama of the sea, from which its compositional “idea” has been derived. Organizational zoning was attempted – vaguely reminiscent of the wooden pier – which gathers all activities. The “disguises” of the element of water, establish a set of visual relationships between the building and the landscape. The villa thus becomes a mediator between the user and the “Place” and evolves into a narrative field on which different investigative flows intersect.
The residence was designed for Navarino Residences architectural competition. Navarino Residences is a collection of luxury villas for private ownership at the heart of Navarino Dunes resort at Costa Navarino, the prime sustainable destination in the Mediterranean. Boasting breathtaking sea views, and state-of-the-art facilities and services next to an intimate connection with history and nature, Navarino Residences is a unique residential community committed to sustainability and everyday life quality.
