BEACH, SUNSET, ENTERTAINMENT...these are three main keywords to create the concept of the beach house. intended to maximize ocean views especially at the entertainment spaces (( Entertainment spaces = the massive open( kitchen-dining-living )space (family- room) + exterior covered front deck which contains infinity swimming pool and sitting areas around it + back deck which has a barbeque and sitting area + the covered balcony on the first floor at the front of the house))...
so the question here is how do we do that?
*At the horizontal level, we designed the great family room (kitchen+dinning+living) in linear, simple, open & sequential order, with floor-to-ceiling glass facades. this space is the main indoor entertainment space but it isn't indoor the most of time...when we open all glassed facades indoor/outdoor entertainment spaces (front+main+back) will melt and flow in each other.
* At the vertical level, the living area it's two stories high so this connects the two-story and balcony on the first floor, one of the bedrooms on the first floor has an adjustable partition: we can remove the partition to make it a restroom which is connecting visually with the living area. And if we need an extra bedroom it can convert easily.
In order to understand the features of the house, let's imagine a full day living in it:
*Wake up and enjoy the magical ocean view from your bed: The house has six bedrooms, all of which can accommodate a king size bed. and their own bathroom. The bedrooms are the spaces with numbers (8,9 and they are on the ground floor - 17,18,21,22 on the first floor) ....Four of them have direct ocean view and a balcony they are :8,21,17,18. while 8 & 21 have there own balconey.
*After you have a shower in your bedroom's bathroom, you will go downstairs to have breakfast. Today, you prefer to have breakfast in the seating area connected to the pool (6), as the dishes are easy to transport because they are close to the kitchen. Children swim in the infinity pool while you lie on one of the benches near the pool or on a swing.
*today you have a large number of guests for lunch. But you do not have to worry about the space at all when the glass doors are pulled out, all the entertainment spaces become connected without any breaks (4,5,6,7,14,20,22) a lot of seats and sessions all overlook the ocean, spaces for children to play, and at the same time we can monitor them and they will not disappear from our eyes. The dining table seats 14, overlooking the pool and the ocean.
*It's time to go to the beach. All of you children, adults, and dogs, will take your chairs, surfboards, etc. into the ocean and exit through the gate opposite Ocean no.(1)
*Upon returning, you will enter from the same gate No. 1, which is at the same level as the beach and is 1.5 meters below the ground floor. You will go immediately to the outdoor shower area (2) and the beach stuff stores below Ground Level ... before entering the house.
*The best thing to do at the end of the day is relaxing in a bathtub which is directly facing Sunset at the ocean bedrooms no. 8 & 21
_interior & exterior covered spaces = 600 m2
_ more than 75% of spaces facing the ocean
The design of the house has been kept simple and clean. every square meter of it can be used efficiently. All doors are sliding inside walls and glass fronts are foldable. There is a car entrance from the northern side, a closed garage for three cars, it is connected to the house when entering the corridor from the garage, you find a storeroom to store all the belongings. It can also be stored in the garage when needed after the store comes to the ground floor bathroom and then reaches the large family room. The ground floor is raised one and a half meters from the beach level, for an infinite pool and a better view. There is another entrance for pedestrians from the side of the beach on the same level of the beach as it connects to the external shower + store for the beach's belongings. All restrictions were respected, and accuracy and quality were followed to produce the design, and it can be considered a multi-level platform looking towards the beach and the sunset.
