Site Plan
Palamutbükü House is situated on a sloped hill with a panoramic view of the sea.
The design of the villa takes full advantage of the site's topography, utilizing the
slope to create a secluded courtyard in the backyard that is physically protected
from the harsh north winds. The courtyard provides a tranquil and private outdoor
space that is shielded from the external elements.
The integration of the courtyard with the inner living area and the front terrace is
achieved through a foldable floor-to-ceiling window system. The system not only
enhances natural ventilation but also provides the flexibility to open up the living
space to the outdoor areas, creating a seamless transition between indoor and
outdoor spaces. This integration is further emphasized by the use of natural
materials such as stone and wood, which bring warmth and texture to the interior
spaces.
The villa comprises three bedrooms, two of which are situated on the first floor with
a sea view, while the third is located on the ground floor next to the courtyard,
offering a more secluded and peaceful atmosphere. The view of the courtyard's
landscaping further enhances the serene ambiance of this bedroom.
The design takes into consideration the climatic conditions of the region, with the
integration of shading devices and a passive cooling system to minimize energy
consumption. The strategic placement of the villa on the slope provides natural
shade, reducing the need for artificial shading devices.
By integration of indoor and outdoor spaces, and connection to the site, design aims
to create a harmonious living experience that embraces the natural beauty of the
surrounding environment.
