Eremia
A family home, quietly confident
The site comes with everything that can overwhelm a project: a steep slope, expansive sea views, and the expectations that come with a high-end estate. Arrival is from the top of the site, while the garden and views lie below. The risk was obvious. Too much focus on the view and the house would become a piece of theatre rather than a place to live.The brief was grounded in family values—honesty, generosity, bravery, and time together. This was to be a forever home, not a statement.
A strong view, kept in balance
We approached the house as a sequence rather than an object. Entry is deliberately modest, a single-storey arrival that keeps its composure. From there, the house opens gradually as you move down the slope, revealing space, light, and finally the ocean.The architecture resists emphasis on individual features. Instead, the bar, cellar, living spaces, pool, and outdoor areas are woven into a coherent whole. Fires anchor the plan. Circulation is carefully considered, with the stair acting as a quiet hinge between levels rather than a moment of display.
A measured response to a demanding site
The result is a house that holds the view rather than chasing it. It feels assured, calm, and lived-in from the outset. The clients have been deeply involved throughout and have grown into the project alongside it—ending up with a home they didn’t know how to ask for at the start.This is a building defined less by what it shows and more by what it gives back: space to gather, to retreat, and to stay.
