拥有甲板般的极致体验，海滨别墅尽可能的通过视觉组合空间，从而更好的展现地中海海平线的美景。别墅地基为钢筋结构，由大小统一、高2.55米的圆柱体结构支撑起，房间则采用玻璃墙面。
Conceived as a layering of decks, the beach house seeks to maximize its relationship with the sea through a visual and compositional celebration of horizontality in general and the Mediterranean horizon in particular. The slabs are held by a minimal steel structure made of equally sized square columns on a regular module of 2.55m, as well as a discreet glass enclosure.
由于独特的地理位置，车辆只能开至临近上层甲板的街道。通过外入口，可行至别墅全部三层。最顶层设有主卧室，正面对一个狭长的长方形泳池和遮阳甲板。中层设有两个卧室和一个家庭活动室。最底层为接待区，通过这里的无边游泳池和楼梯可直接前往海边。而在屋外，匝道和楼梯纵横交错，连接起不同平台，形成滨海步行大道。岩石风景贯穿于步行大道两边，一直通往海边。
钢筋结构和木质甲板的组合产生了光怪陆离的光影效果。在白天，房屋的影子在不同时间段的光照角度和高度下千变万化，使得房屋也更外有生气。在落日的某一特定时刻，几乎正对西面又面朝大海的房屋宛如精美相片一般，画中落日余晖洒入屋内，将屋子染成夕阳红。
Given the inclined nature of the site, the house is approached by car on the street level just below the upper deck. At the external landing entrance, the circulation interconnects the three levels of the house. The upper platform contains the master bedroom that opens up on an elongated lap pool and expansive sun deck. The middle platform houses two bedrooms and a family living. Finally, the lower deck serves as a reception area that extends outdoors towards the sea through an infinity pool as well as a staircase to the shore. In addition to the inner circulation core, a smooth promenade formed by a system of external ramps and staircases connects the platforms, linking the various levels of the rocky landscape that stretches between the street all the way to the sea.
The rhythms of the steel structure and wooden decking create a multiplicity of overlapping patterns of shadows that vary in direction and length all through the day rendering the simple structure at once complex and alive. At the particular moment of the sunset, the house, oriented almost due west at the elevation that faces the sea, acts as photographic diaphragm that invites the rays of the setting sun into the depths of the house, dashing the prototypical spaces in a horizontal glow of deep red.
