Villa · Emaar Beachfront
Stacked slabs, softened corners.
The project
La Mer Villa is organised as three travertine trays with radiused edges, each one planted along its lip so the house reads as terraces of greenery rather than storeys. Bronze, carport, pergola, gates, screens, is the only other exterior material.
Inside, the same restraint holds: travertine and warm oak on every plane, green marble as the recurring accent, and cognac leather for the furniture. A floating stone stair and a double-height reception tie the ground floor together.
01 · La Mer Villa
The whole ground floor slides open onto one terrace: lounge, dining and outdoor kitchen under the slab, a green mosaic pool with a sunken deck, and an olive tree set into the paving as the pivot between them.
02 · La Mer Villa
A bronze-clad boundary with fluted gates gives the street front total privacy; on the garden side the same slabs open into full-height glazing, balconies and the pool.
03 · La Mer Villa
The carport is a single folded bronze plane on slim paired columns, its underside lined with timber battens and two continuous light slots. Planters and self-watering troughs run along both edges so the structure sits in green from every approach.
04 · La Mer Villa
Two long boucle sofas and a pair of cognac leather swivels sit on a sand rug drawn with a single wandering line, under a rounded cove-lit ceiling ring that repeats the plan of the room. Sheer curtains run the full height of the glazing.
05 · La Mer Villa
The family sitting room centres on a leather-wrapped media panel flanked by full-height book-matched green marble, with a linear fire below and a slim bronze light grazing the joint. Travertine returns and glass-shelved joinery close the room on the other side.
06 · La Mer Villa
The dining table sits directly against the floating stair, so the treads become the backdrop. Lit marble display joinery runs the opposite wall, and a linear crossed pendant in ribbed glass hangs low over the setting.
07 · La Mer Villa
The cantilevered stair and the show kitchen island were both set out slab by slab, every tread and every mitre matched to the vein before anything was cut.
08 · La Mer Villa
A single brass grid holds the collection against a backlit onyx wall, turning storage into the light source for the room. Blackened joinery with lit shelves, a stone counter and a chilled cabinet handle the service side.
09 · La Mer Villa
The cellar sits behind a black steel and glass screen, lighting the lounge in front of it. Curved boucle sofas, an oxblood armchair, olive recliners and a green marble drum table gather on a chevron rug under a crossed bronze pendant.
10 · La Mer Villa
Bedrooms and the study keep the same joinery discipline, fluted panels, oak, stone niches, with the palette pulled back to a single tone per room.
11 · La Mer Villa
Gym and garage are treated as rooms, not utilities: full-height oak panelling, integrated equipment joinery, batten ceilings and concealed linear light.
