The Beach House

A unique and magical place, where time flows differently and each day unfolds in the same way: nature, the sea, the beach, elegance, and endless unforgettable moments.

The entrance to the house (if you’ve seen movies like Star Wars or Dune, this will be easier to picture) resembles a hole dug into the sand of a dune.
In fact, a home so close to the beach and the sea should create—especially visually—a stark contrast, something out of place, something unnatural.
This is not the case.
Starting from the sea, it would seem like a natural, cyclical order: currents that meet and intersect at depth, causing gentle waves until they break on the shoreline; then the beach and the coastline (which in this specific case is bounded by a bay); and finally, without noticing the difference between nature and the built environment, one enters the house.
Apparently, there is no break, no boundary between the two elements. You enter the first room (the living room) and it feels like continuing a long walk, a long journey that began in the depths of the ocean floor.
Furnishings such as the sofa, the two armchairs on either side of it, a huge clock, a sideboard to the right of the front door, and the television could (and should) seem out of place, alien to the context, but instead they integrate and blend perfectly with the outdoors and the surrounding environment.
This symbiosis is also due to the entryway French doors, which are there but go unnoticed; they do not separate—and thus distance—the two spaces, but rather do the exact opposite.

The central section of the house extends primarily along its length, and the hallway—which begins at the entryway/living room and leads to the kitchen—is spacious and enveloping (it isn’t straight but curves slightly) and leads to the first two bedrooms.
Both are equipped with a dresser, closet, TV, and bathroom with a shower.
Some of the furnishings inside are not random but are fully integrated into the space: oars and beach nets (above the headboards) aren’t deliberately placed as the result of an architect’s intuition, but seem to be there by natural order, as if carried by the ocean currents…
Here, too, the union between nature and the built environment, between exterior and interior, continues to be a predominant element.
The bedroom ceilings feature two skylights gazing toward the sky.
This is yet another element of unity, a bond between the two worlds that, even when separated by barriers and architectural features, manage to find a way to reconnect.
Two dedicated remote controls open and close the windows and blinds (completely darkening the room).

At the end of the hallway is the kitchen/galley. White, elegant, and fully equipped: oven, refrigerator, kettle, Nespresso machine, microwave, and a table for eight.
The space is illuminated by two enormous windows located between the TV and the door leading to the patio and the guesthouse.

In fact, when you step outside, you’ll arrive (accessible via stairs and on a lower level) at the patio, where you’ll find the laundry area with a washing machine, a bike available for guests, and a portable barbecue.
An arch in the patio wall leads to the outdoor shower.

In front of the patio is a path (illuminated by spotlights in the evening) that leads to the guesthouse.
Inside, there are two bedrooms—one with a double bed and the other with two single beds—a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a shower.
The two bedrooms share a single air conditioner located at the entrance; keeping the doors open allows them to cool comfortably.
The guesthouse also has an outdoor area.

The beach is almost never crowded (even in August), and there’s a small kiosk right in front of it where you can have lunch.
