Spanish Villa
Abu Dhabi
2018
The client of this private villa in Abu Dhabi sought to merge the elegance of Spanish architecture with the openness of contemporary coastal living. The design responds with a composition that celebrates light, connection, and a spirit of gathering. Generous social spaces flow toward a sea-facing pool, while the interiors balance playfulness with refinement through layered textures and curated details. The ground floor is envisioned as a vibrant social hub where indoor and outdoor life blend effortlessly. Surrounded by landscaped gardens, a greenhouse, and a private beach, a service yard and staff accommodation, the villa’s exterior of white rendered walls, stone foundations, and timber accents evokes a timeless resort character that feels both grounded and alive.
