Halil As Bodrum Villa

Project Narrative
The plot's steep grade asked for terraced building rather than a single mass. We split the programme into two villas connected by a shared garden so each family enjoys an unobstructed view while the composition reads as a unified seaside ensemble.
Wind and view analyses determined the precise rotation of each villa. Their footprints follow the natural contours so excavation was minimised, and existing olive trees were retained as anchor points around which the gardens were drawn.
Local stone, lime-washed render, and weathered timber make up the material palette — chosen so the villas age into rather than away from the landscape. Each pool is finished with a darker stone that lets the water read as part of the sea below.
The two villas function as a small private compound — separate enough for daily privacy, close enough for shared evenings around a single garden table set between the pools.
