ABR villa is located on steep slopes of Ramsar, overlooks to the Caspian sea and amazing jungles of this area. The challenge was to make the most of the site in order to provide the most suitable set of spaces with unique viewpoints. Our response was to design a simple, uncluttered composition of stacked forms interlinked and cut open to expose the interior spaces to the adjacent green valley and jungle views beyond. The ground floor contains kitchen, dining, living areas, terrace and a guest suite. The underlying floor contains bedrooms and media room. Large windows open fully to dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior spaces, further reinforced with seamless floor tiling and wall finishes employed continuously between interior and exterior spaces. The living area within the house are restrained and minimal. The entire ground floor is open and inter-connected yet does not feel stark or sterile. The kitchen is carefully detailed with a functional cooking area concealed in a separate annex, allowing the occupants to enjoy the primary space without clutter. The materiality is sophisticated and elegant – covered gable roof, stone flooring and dark timbers delivering a rich and tactile experience. This is a building that celebrates its location and compliments the existing site context and surrounding landscape, yet still provides a comfortable retreat away from a very busy urban environment. These processes recover local materials and techniques, discovering the potentialities of the natural, cultural and human capital of the region; guided by a firm commitment to sustainability and the hierarchy of native knowledge. The design respects the surrounding nature, adapting the construction to the natural configuration of the ground.
