Overview:
Wing-like roofline houses a dramatic white villa in Costa Rica jungle.
Studio Saxe was commissioned to design a villa on the hilltops of Santiago in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. The primary objective was not only to provide dwellers with a connection with its jungle surroundings but also to generate an intimate relationship with an amazing view of the shoreline which brings its dwellers back to a more profound appreciation of the natural world.
Concept
Studio Saxe decided to create a large roof that would house within a series of bedrooms and living spaces that would all be turned sideways in order to face the prominent views. Interstitial spaces within the living volumes create gaps that enhance a deeper connection to the natural surroundings whilst moving about the dwelling.
Design
Every space in the home has been angled to view the ocean, and this twist creates a geometric relationship between the roofline and the spaces that became the primary element of design that both addresses the need for large overhangs (for climate control and comfort) but also generates a literal connection between the view and every space.
This white house in the jungle acts as a canvas so that morning and sunset light reflect on its surfaces creating an array of colors that vary throughout the day. The angled surfaces also allow for the reflection of shadows and the textures of nature to play within the interstitial spaces that exist between the living spaces.
Construction
Due to the remoteness of the location and difficult access, Studio Saxe decided to create a light steel frame that could be prefabricated off-site, brought, and assembled in a fast and effective way. This not only ensured the quality of the construction in a very remote location, but it also allowed the process of construction to be very light touch and the intervention on the site to be very minimal while creating the sensation of large open spaces that bring the view in and at the same time are protected by a large roof held by steel “I” beams.
Sustainability
At Studio Saxe we believe that proper design with nature should be the first focus of sustainability and thus, this villa has been oriented properly to take advantage of predominant winds for cooling. Also, long overhangs protect from the sun and the rain in the most critical parts of the day creating comfort without the use of energy. A light touch construction method meant that the impact on the site was minimal during the implementation of the villa and the extended roofline also serves as a means to collect water and energy generation.

View from the Northwest. This home is built with high performance walls and roofs, resulting in a very well insulated and tightly sealed home. We implemented a combined heating approach of passive solar and radiant hydronic floor heating, which we call “Sun Smart Radiant Heating.” This system sensibly captures the sun’s energy on sunny days and has two added benefits. The radiant system distributes the sun’s heat uniformly throughout the home and also produces heat during long stretches of cloudy days or extreme cold. This dual heating method is not only incredibly energy efficient, it relieves any worries homeowners may have about living in a home that is heated with passive solar alone.
During the warmer months, the Quinn Creek Home is designed to benefit from passive cooling, a free home air-conditioning strategy. Also, carefully designed roof overhangs and awnings prevent unwanted solar heat gain in the summer.
The windows used for both passive solar heating and passive cooling, provide beautiful views and connect the inhabits to the ephemeral qualities of the outdoors. The experience of living in a passive solar home changes from day to day, season to season. The windows also provide ample natural day lighting, even on cloudy days, which significantly reduces electric lighting costs and reduces the occurrence of falls and depression within the home.
The surrounding mountain and hillside slopes of the Quinn Creek Home were carefully analyzed and integrated into the design and roof pitches. Even though this photo is in color, winter light conditions often create a black-and-white-like effect. The darker and lighter colored metal siding and roofing colors were purposefully chosen to help the home blend with the environment during the changing seasons.

How do you modernize modernism on a budget? This house had charming midcentury character and lots of potential but had been neglected for many years and was sorely in need of a refresh to bring it up to modern standards of comfort, finish, and sustainability. The tight budget dictated that it would not be a down-to-the-studs, gut remodel, but more of a surgical intervention.
Built in 1955, the house had settled on the downhill side, making the floors slope almost 4” from the front to the back of the house. Using an innovative and inexpensive push-pile method, the foundation was reinforced and the house was jacked back up. It now sits solidly on bedrock and the floor is level to within a half-inch throughout.
Inside, the original kitchen was worn and needed replacement. This presented an opportunity to remove the walls separating it from the living and dining area and create a wide-open great room with a peninsula counter for guests to gather and an almost continuous wall of windows to take in views of the hills, trees, and bay.
Throughout the rest of the house, most finishes were restored, or replaced when necessary. Wood floors were refinished, and new cork flooring, a slightly less durable but much less expensive alternative to tile and similar materials, was used in all wet areas, with the added benefit of warmth and resiliency. The existing textured walls and ceilings were skim-coated smooth with plaster, dark beams painted white, and existing wood wall paneling in the living room was cleaned and color-matched where new pieces were required. All of the existing frameless, direct-glazed windows were replaced with double pane units, and a new floor-to-ceiling window on the south side of the living room provides a key source of natural light.
In the bathrooms, existing tile and vanities were saved, and a strangely colored tub and sinks were re-glazed. Flooring, toilets, lighting, double medicine cabinets, and paint in each space make these mostly unaltered rooms feel new again.
Sustainability and comfort upgrades include an induction range (step one of an eventual transition to full electrification), spray foam insulation under the floor, spray-in cellulose in the walls, and warm-dim LED lighting throughout on a simple whole-house control system. Combined with a modern thermostat, the house’s systems are all accessible via app from anywhere.
And the most sustainable feature of all? What we didn’t do: tear it down and start over. In a country that demolishes a million homes a year- 1% of our residential housing stock- reusing an existing home is the greenest solution of all.

An unforgettable first impression of the external image of the building consists of its aesthetically perfect forms. Design Studio Dubai Luxury Antonovich Design offers its customers a unique approach to the creation of architectural projects. The exterior design of buildings takes into account all the nuances of modern trends in design and architecture. The combination of the author's ideas, creative solutions form integral and expressive images.
The harmony of the external image of the house
Exterior design is a deep and multi-faceted process which involves the creation of a perfect and harmonious image of the building with clean lines and forms. In order to harmonize the forms of facades in any style, from classical to modern, Dubai architects skillfully use all methods of composition. This is the right scale, rhythm of the building, its perfect proportions, proportionality, texture of materials and shades. As well as exterior lighting of the house. Gracefully combining such traditional architectural elements as portals, stairs, doors, windows, railings, balustrades, balconies, and others, we create luxurious exteriors of homes that are true masterpieces of architecture.
Basics of exteriors expressiveness
By creating unique and visually appealling exteriors of buildings, we aim to reflect the respectability of the house and elegantly hint that interior is not less luxurious than exterior. Often, the house exterior design is closely related to interior design. Such things as color, texture, light and shade are the means of architectural composition, with which the architect Dubai creates facades of the unique beauty. To make the exterior more clear and vivid, we use materials with a natural texture, as well as those treated in special ways. And we also combine advantages of natural light and additional artificial lighting of buildings.
The exterior design and landscape design
The basis of the ideal image of the building is its perfect harmony with the surrounding landscape. Typically, the exterior design of the building is closely related to landscape design. The surrounding landscape becomes a beautiful frame of a nice building. Sculptures in the garden can pick up the elegant decor motives of the building. The highlight of the modern houses design becomes vertical gardening. Especially popular this decor in projects, which are designed in a modern style. Modern technologies allow to create beautiful vertical landscapes, giving the image of a cozy and warm character.
The building exterior design is a very important moment in the work on each project. We offer our customers 3D visualization of the exterior, which can also include 3D visualization of landscape design.

Integral and expressive image of Master bedroom consists of many charming details. Interior Designer Katrina Antonovich offered a refined interior in the style of modern classics. In the bedroom pastel shades of cream dominate. And every element of the decor has the charm of tenderness and warmth. In the walls decor the wallpaper with classic lace patterns looks wonderful. Almost the entire surface made of natural wood is covered by a soft carpet with a fluffy pile. Interior lighting is provided by an elegant crystal chandelier with additional lighting lines. And to create more relaxed lighting, you can use the charming scones. To visually expand the space of the bedroom interior, the designer uses light range of shades, as well as additional methods, like large mirrors that decorated the wardrobe doors. In the Master bedroom interior there is absolute harmony. Interior Designer gracefully repeats curls of carved headboard in the stucco on the ceiling.

Overview:
Wing-like roofline houses a dramatic white villa in Costa Rica jungle.
Studio Saxe was commissioned to design a villa on the hilltops of Santiago in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. The primary objective was not only to provide dwellers with a connection with its jungle surroundings but also to generate an intimate relationship with an amazing view of the shoreline which brings its dwellers back to a more profound appreciation of the natural world.
Concept
Studio Saxe decided to create a large roof that would house within a series of bedrooms and living spaces that would all be turned sideways in order to face the prominent views. Interstitial spaces within the living volumes create gaps that enhance a deeper connection to the natural surroundings whilst moving about the dwelling.
Design
Every space in the home has been angled to view the ocean, and this twist creates a geometric relationship between the roofline and the spaces that became the primary element of design that both addresses the need for large overhangs (for climate control and comfort) but also generates a literal connection between the view and every space.
This white house in the jungle acts as a canvas so that morning and sunset light reflect on its surfaces creating an array of colors that vary throughout the day. The angled surfaces also allow for the reflection of shadows and the textures of nature to play within the interstitial spaces that exist between the living spaces.
Construction
Due to the remoteness of the location and difficult access, Studio Saxe decided to create a light steel frame that could be prefabricated off-site, brought, and assembled in a fast and effective way. This not only ensured the quality of the construction in a very remote location, but it also allowed the process of construction to be very light touch and the intervention on the site to be very minimal while creating the sensation of large open spaces that bring the view in and at the same time are protected by a large roof held by steel “I” beams.
Sustainability
At Studio Saxe we believe that proper design with nature should be the first focus of sustainability and thus, this villa has been oriented properly to take advantage of predominant winds for cooling. Also, long overhangs protect from the sun and the rain in the most critical parts of the day creating comfort without the use of energy. A light touch construction method meant that the impact on the site was minimal during the implementation of the villa and the extended roofline also serves as a means to collect water and energy generation.

Living is easy in this impressive kitchen.
A true collaboration of the home owners and their designer. This masterful, original design has it all. The key to this successful design is its foundation of textural contrast and beauty of materials.
This kitchen reflects the warmth of Mediterranean kitchens while striking the perfect balance of textural finishes. The newly remodeled kitchen is a seamless addition to the remainder of this inspiring and carefully curated home. The palette of earthy neutrals combined with orange-reds, golds, and muted greens to add warmth and comfort. Every detail was carefully selected and quality crafted. Premium finishes and fixtures were meticulously chosen to compliment and reinforce the foundation of the design. Notice the custom dramatic hanging lights, under island lighting and recessed lights which provide the layering needed for the perfect illumination of this kitchen. Every aspect of this design was methodically thought out from the window treatment style and fabrics to the handsome hardware, backsplash, hardwood floor and lighting. From design concept to selections to completion no detail was over looked.
The perfect family zone where one can escape the rush of daily life, relax and catch up with family and friends. Everything about this kitchen says welcome. This space truly embraces the goal of the home owners to be the heart of the home.
