Villa
LunaTica - description
Perched
on a steep tropical hill-side above the Pacific Ocean, just minutes
north of famous Manuel Antonio National Park, this stunning architectural
gem
showcases an inspired modern spin on Jungle Geometry:
The Villa's spine - 2 immense almond beams - is supported by a double
row of
massive columns that march through the tri-level "great room"
to a panoramic
window-wall, marking the increase in ceiling height from 14 - 24 feet,
as the
space steps down.
From the entrance porch, strikingly sculptured stairs either levitate
to a lofty
mezzanine and further up to the master suite and sun-deck above, or widen
as
they flow down to the kitchen/dining level and the living room below -
always
inviting to double as seating.
The vast floor-to-ceiling glass facade opens to a water-edged living terrace
shaded by 3 smartly suspended sails, while high cedar doors attend the
side-wing-suite on the right side of the living room level.
LunaTica
was designed to be in tune with its tropical landscape - open to the
sea breezes, the scent of ylang ylang trees and the ever-changing light
of its
rainforest environment. Rooms extend onto expansive balconies, patios
and
hammock-strung terraces, while the magnificent infinity pool is carved
into the hillside
and embedded in lush tropical vegetation -
shimmering sea views from everywhere >>>
Extreme Comfort Zones !
White
walls and sand-colored polished cement floors are offset by playful
splashes of color - sun-drenched orange, reds and fuchsia - black granite
kitchen counters and richly grained native woods.
A
haven completely calm and serene contrasting the abundance of the jungle's
greenery - boldly simple in its furnishings and always sophisticated in
its fusion
of honest materials and textures - concrete, steel, glass, slate, granite
and
plenty of local hard-woods.
Minimal
in decor and yet rich in space, light, ideas and imagination.
