Architecture Design of Villa Schefflera

Description About The Project

Villa Schefflera designed by Marion Regitko Arquitectos, located in a leafy, 1970s suburb in Estepona, very close to the Mediterranean. Indeed, the design of this house to adapt the owner’s requirement for a new and modern dwelling. It is a stunning white, modern villa with veranda embedded into a tropical garden.

On the other hand, a large veranda surrounds the ground floor allowing outdoor living with tropical plants and flowers and shades the interior from the summer sun. The upper floor offers as many sea views as possible. Also, the master bedroom and the studio surrounded by a spacious deck covered with a wooden pergola. Here is where the connection to the sea is made. In addition to this, privacy to the neighboring houses is provided by planting in the garden and on the deck itself.

The layout of the villa, together with carefully placed windows all around, provides cross ventilation to cool the interior. This creates a comfortable climate, without the need for air condition, for most of the year. Also, mechanical climatization has been designed with energy saving in mind. A high efficiency air – source heat pump provides heating, cooling and hot water. Installation of photovoltaic panels on the roof is currently underway to reduce, to near zero, electricity consumption from the grid.

Although the house has been totally transformed, traces of the original have been left as reminders of the past. The new house, a large, modern and airy villa embraces the future.

Villa Schefflera, a comprehensive renovation by Marion Regitko Arquitectos — From the start, the architecture and the garden design were strongly interconnected. The two elements combine to create the atmosphere of the villa.

Colorful artworks and furniture placed in the white interior reflect the colorful bougainvillea placed within the green of the surrounding garden.

The white tone of the bedroom creates elegant space.

Text by the Architects: Villa Schefflera, a comprehensive renovation.
The design of the villa inspired by the client’s spirit and a desire to transform her old holiday house into something new and modern. After a period of discussion with the architect it became clear what she had in mind, a white, modern villa with veranda embedded into a tropical garden. The house, that will eventually become her permanent residence, should reflect memories of her late husband and the joy of past family holidays.
