a home evoking the character of an exclusive resort

 

An Asian-inspired oasis atop the Valencian hillside, Residence 321 unfolds as a series of concrete strips engulfed in exotic vegetation. Spanish studio Ascoz Arquitectura has designed the contemporary residence to evoke the character of a serene, exclusive resort overlooking the Pacific Ocean, to allow its inhabitants the comfort of enjoying a vacation every night.

 

In its form, the project’s definitive strips are built in precast concrete which generate dynamism between light and shadow, and between interior and exterior spaces, as the architects weave terraces and internal spaces with greenery for a serene living experience enriched by nature.

‘Living in an oasis. Coming home at night and going to bed as if we were always on vacation. Those were the desires that the family conveyed to us,’ notes Damian Ascoz, architect and founder of Ascoz Architecture. Working closely with the clients, the design team integrated vegetation into the interstices of the structure to embrace the outdoors. In particular, a fence of foliage marks the boundary of the home, while two trees physically intersect the structure and expansive glazing infuses views inside to increase the feeling of unity with nature. Lining the terrace roof adjacent to the pool are bamboo elements that further immerse inhabitants in a natural environment. In doing so, the boundaries between the interior and exterior of the house become blurred in a fluid expression. 

 

With an area of over 625 sqm, Residence 321 configures all amenities required to enable its inhabitants a comfortable getaway from the bustle of city life across its three levels. Each detail has been designed in close collaboration with the clients with a view to create a luxury living experience, including a heated outdoor jacuzzi, a fantasy pool, a wine cellar, and a lush, landscaped garden.
