DESIGN SHOWCASE
Located in a verdant setting in the Mijas hills, this sprawling villa has been designed in the context of a winding river. Architect Marion Regitko organised the house in one meandering form made of natural stone, creating three volumes with an open space interwoven between them hence its name: El Meandro.
Sitting on top of the hill, the first volume contains the main living, dining and kitchen area, in an open plan with spectacular sea and mountain views. The living space extends into the exterior, blending into the deck and swimming pool area and south-west garden. A large, over-sailing roof connects the inside and outside, and protects the interior from the summer sun.
The second volume’s shape (containing the swimming pool) connects to the third volume, situated further down the hill and pushed into the landscape. This volume comprises three guest rooms with en suite bathrooms, a guest living room and service functions – with private views to the sea. The open spaces in between the three volumes and the hill are more protected and enclosed. They include an exterior lounge area, parking, entrance with lift, private patio for guests and roof garden.
