This interior design project showcases a luxurious villa in Marbella, located near the sea, where bold aesthetics meet refined luxury. The design embraces a maximalist approach, combining rich materials, dramatic contrasts, and statement pieces to create an atmosphere of opulence and individuality. Rather than drawing on Mediterranean minimalism, the concept celebrates visual intensity and curated extravagance — from sculptural lighting to bespoke furnishings and vibrant textures. The result is a striking, character-filled residence that reflects confidence, sophistication, and a taste for the exceptional.
The residence unfolds around an architectural dialogue between nature and artifice: a dramatic rocky wall, preserved from the site’s natural formation, becomes a living backdrop visible through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that frame its sculptural presence. The ground floor features an open living area dominated by a spectacular spiral staircase rising within a double-height space. Suspended above it, a monumental installation made of hundreds of marble flakes captures and reflects the light, creating a constantly shifting play of textures and shadows. Generous terraces and an infinity pool extend the living experience outward, blending panoramic sea views with a sense of theatrical grandeur. The upper levels house spacious bedrooms, each designed as a private suite with bespoke finishes and curated details. In contrast, the basement transforms into a lavish entertainment hall — a place for social gatherings, music, and celebration. The design embraces a maximalist vision of elegance: rich materials, bold contrasts, and striking art pieces combine to create a residence that is both a home and a statement — a true celebration of refined exuberance by the sea.
