Villa in San Pedro Alcantara

Following the initial project, we created for the client 14 years prior, we were called in to expand the office to another level. The client’s brief was simple – provide a space where we can meet with clients in a relaxed manner, akin to that of a comfortable living room setting. Our concept was equally simple – make the connection between the existing office and the new meeting spaces the core of the project. Make it restrained, make it clear, make it bold. Create one element that impacts two floors. The inspiration for the work was Tom and the brand he has created. The stone staircase is the stone wall and vice versa, as if carved out of a singular block of stone. The stone is hollowed out the top, punching a hole through the roof to the sky. While the stone stair is the physical connection between the two floors, it is the light that truly connects the spaces.
