It’s not often that a sloping site will offer the opportunity of clear views to all the accommodation we put on it. Through careful master planning, every villa at Jacaranda enjoys the full majesty of an Aegean sunset.
Part of the inspiration behind our designwas to create delicate but wide, open-ended tubes that provide shade and encourage an indoor/outdoor way of life by harnessing the cooling land and sea breezes that prevail during the summer months.
Taking inspiration from the natural flora of the site, olive and hollyoak trees are used extensively andpunctuated by the verticality of cypresses. Oleander, bougainvillea and jasmine provide texture and accent to the ground cover with fragrance being added with rosemary and lavender.
The elegance and fragility of the structure enclosing the living, dining and kitchen allows it to float above the rusticated base of the bedrooms on the level below. The finely engineered concrete and glass box sits atop locally quarried natural hewn stone, providing deep texturing and vivid contrast. As with all our work, the real quality is in the details and we pride ourselves in making sure everything fits together beautifully.
