The Artist’s House
In the embrace of the Mediterranean's coastal shores, the Artist's House emerges as a tangible manifestation of considered design. A synthesis of historical roots and contemporary aesthetics, this dwelling redefines the architectural landscape.
Inspired by the island's untouched nature, the interior design is a testament to simplicity and functionality. The use of natural materials - timber, stone, and polished plaster - evokes the region's coastal ruggedness, while the sleek finishes in the modern extension pay tribute to the island's heritage.
The house, comprised of living spaces, bedrooms, kitchen, dining hall, and outdoor living areas including a clifftop pool, seamlessly integrates these elements into a cohesive whole. It’s a practical and deliberate approach, with each room serving its purpose without unnecessary embellishments.
The artist's studio, a dedicated space for creativity, is a functional extension that refrains from unnecessary opulence. It's a workspace where the island's light and ambience filter through large windows, creating an environment conducive to artistic endeavours.
A significant aspect of the house is the extensive collection of modern art. This collection, far from being decorative, influences the overall design ethos. The minimalist interior design allows these artworks to take centre stage without overwhelming the space, creating a curated yet unpretentious atmosphere.
In the Artist's House, the seamless blend of historical details and contemporary finishes creates a space where each element serves a purpose. It's not a grandiose proclamation but a practical realization of a home that respects its surroundings and the functional needs of its occupants.
In the meticulous fusion of historical echoes and modern functionality, the Artist's House exemplifies Vacancy Bureau's commitment to Uncommon Creativity. The deliberate choice of natural materials, the seamless integration of old and new, and the unassuming yet purposeful design reflect a distinctive approach that transcends conventional boundaries. Here, creativity is not an embellishment but an intrinsic part of every architectural decision, embodying the essence of Uncommon Creativity in the very fabric of the dwelling.
