Moncayo Estate
The concept for the villa in the Caribbean was developed on a plot of land that required maximum use of every square meter so that the building’s design would not have to compromise on its planned monumentality. The architecture went upwards: double heights, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and a layout in which not a single meter was wasted. The interiors appear much larger than the size of the plot initially suggested.
Tropical greenery surrounds the house on all sides and pours into every window – the boundary between what is built and what grows from the ground is deliberately blurred here. Marble floors, soft carpets, and warm off-white colors create a backdrop that gives way to the landscape behind the glass.Each room has its own character thanks to original chandeliers from Sans Souci made of crystal and Murano glass. They give the interiors scale and rhythm. The study combines a library and an office – rosewood bookshelves, a desk on a sculptural leg, and a relaxation area multiply the functions without adding more walls.
