Sea Side, Mountain Side

Designed from the inside out, this project ensures an exceptionally high quality of living deeply connected to its surroundings. Thanks to a diagonal layout of the interior spaces, every home benefits from two remarkable, far-reaching views—toward both the sea and the mountains—slipping through the staggered arrangement of the surrounding buildings.The design takes full advantage of the topography, offering tailored solutions to the sloping terrain set within a Mediterranean climate. Wide outdoor staircases wrap around pine trees planted directly in the ground, drawing the park’s lush greenery inward in the spirit of classic Riviera estates.The identity of the site unfolds at pedestrian scale. In Roquebrune, urban voids and interstices define the landscape, inviting exploration of more intimate pockets and encouraging leisurely strolls. Small plazas, courtyards, passageways, and setbacks form a network of cool, open spaces. This dialogue with open space is reinterpreted through patios along the Rambla, bringing air into the new urban fabric while reinforcing its connection to the park.The alignment of the four buildings and the continuous commercial frontage bring harmony and balance to this new stretch of the city.
