From the bones of an existing Spanish style home, leading South African firms SAOTA & ARRCC have combined their enormous talent in contemporary architecture to create this stunning three level getaway on the island of Ibiza, Spain.

Offering panoramic views of surrounding islands the sloping site is situated in an exclusive residential estate called Roca Llisa far above the revellers the island is renowned for.

In keeping with the spectacular location, the client’s brief was for a modern interpretation of the Mediterranean villa -required however to be suitable for both relaxed family living and entertaining of large groups of friends. Achieving this balance perfectly, the home fuses clean minimalist lines with a mixture of natural materials including timber and stone which add an organic quality to the predominantly white interior and soften the look.

Clever choice of eclectic furniture primarily supplied by sister company OKHA transforms the home from coastal casual during the day to ‘Bohemian Bar’ at night, aided by concealed lighting and mirrored pillars that during the day reflect the incredible island views.
