BACKGROUND INFORMATION

In December 2018, an exciting real estate proposal design project commenced on a pristine piece of land in Wheeland Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands. Acting as sub-architects, our team embarked on a mission to design and visualize concepts that would captivate New York-based developers, enticing them to invest in an ambitious project encompassing beachfront villas and affordable housing units.

DESIGN INFO

  1. Variety of Villas: The project comprised ten units, featuring two distinct villa types – seven 2-bedroom villas and three 3-bedroom villas, each strategically oriented to offer residents mesmerizing views of the tranquil Caribbean sea.

  2. Nature Integration: Our core design philosophy aimed to create a seamless interaction between homeowners and the stunning natural surroundings. We drew inspiration from Caribbean architectural styles while factoring in the region’s predominant climatic challenges, such as hurricanes.

  3. Resilience against Hurricanes: The villas were engineered and constructed to withstand the rigors of hurricanes, ensuring the safety and security of residents even in the face of adverse weather conditions.

Interior Layout:

  • Ground Floor: A thoughtfully designed open-plan interior included a spacious living room, a convenient powder room, and a well-equipped kitchen, fostering a sense of openness and community.

  • First Floor: The first floor housed inviting bedrooms, modern toilet/bathrooms, and balconies that provided sweeping views of the North Atlantic Ocean, creating a serene retreat for residents.

Rooftop Oasis:

  • The rooftop was conceived as a multifunctional space, offering residents a chance to embrace outdoor living.
  • It featured a BBQ kitchen, a rooftop pool, and comfortable seating areas, serving as a haven for relaxation and entertainment, elevated above the breathtaking landscape.

Choice of Materials:

  • Wall Construction: Given the tropical climate similarities with Nigeria, the villa walls were built using sturdy sandcrete blocks, coated with cement plaster, and finished with stucco paints, combining durability with aesthetics.

  • Flooring: The floors were adorned with elegant marble tiles, adding a touch of luxury while ensuring durability.

  • Rooftop Protection: An asphalt floor cladding on the rooftop effectively repelled water and safeguarded the structure from the elements.

Conclusion: This beach villa project in the Turks and Caicos Islands exemplifies a harmonious blend of nature-inspired design, resilience against climatic challenges, and a commitment to providing residents with a slice of paradise.Acting as sub-architects, our team took pride in crafting a design that not only captivates with its aesthetics but also ensures the longevity and comfort of those who call these beach villas home.
