A new villa sits quietly within the residence’s grounds, designed as a private retreat. Living, working, and repose unfold seamlessly, with bedroom, study, kitchenette, fireplace, and ensuite arranged in a calm choreography of spaces. Stone floors flow from exterior to interior, while hand-crafted pivoting timber screens filter light and define thresholds. Overhead, a metal datum traces the softly curved plaster ceiling, introducing subtle reflectivity and a luminous, expansive quality. The result is a considered interior where materiality, light, and spatial layering create privacy, stillness, and architectural clarity.
