VILLA AKBÜK

Akbük, Turkey

SCROLL DOWN

Modern white house with glass balconies on a sunny street lined with palm and pine trees by the sea.

‘Design for Living’ was the mantra that was also the starting point for the design journey of this 450 square metres, 4-floor family home. The house was created to embrace the breathtaking views of the sea and mountains in each room. A beautiful, yet highly functional space that worked for all aspects of family life and social gatherings.

Bright bedroom with a large bed, gray upholstered headboard, blue floral pillows, and a window view.

Modern living room with beige sofas and large windows showing a sea view with trees outside.

Modern kitchen with blue cabinets, wood-style floor, built-in oven, glass display shelves, and large window.

Modern hallway with wood floor, vertical wood wall panels, round mirror, and white wardrobe.

The floor planes were carefully designed to distinguish the seasonal needs of the family, who loves to entertain and has many guests during summer. Each floor was zoned to create distinct areas for work, play, family time together, entertain and peaceful time apart.

Modern dining room with eight gray chairs around a glass table and large windows overlooking palm trees.

Long wooden table with chairs on terrace overlooking palm trees and a calm sea under blue sky.

Bespoke furniture & details including distinctive headboards and lighting details create a warming blend of modern and classical and a strong sense of home. The design throughout this spacious villa celebrates unfettered simplicity.

In the kitchen we focussed heavily on deep royal blue with touches of brass details and warm textured wood juxtaposing happily with the paleness of the cool marble surfaces.

The herringbone ceramic flooring throughout the whole house gives a sharp contemporary look, but the use of multiple shades and bespoke lightning details gives a scattering of warmth and variation throughout, which enhances the relaxed feel of the home.

Indoor stairway with wooden steps and railing, decorated with various cacti and succulents near windows.

Two twin beds with green leaf-patterned bedding and pillows, a black headboard, and a wooden nightstand.

Modern living room with beige sofas, circular chandelier, fireplace, and large windows showing ocean view.

In the living and bedroom areas natural fabrics such as linen, bouclé, velvet and hide work together, easing from one shade to another within their neutral palette to create a serene, elegant, and welcoming sanctuary.
