Al Mamzar Private Villa
By : MEMAR architecture
GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN – 16th edition
Discipline : Architecture
Categories : Other categories in architecture / Concept & Unbuilt : Bronze Certification
This modern villa located in Dubai, AL MAMZAR FRONT, was designed by Memar Architecture.
- The client’s main requirements:
The client wanted an exterior and interior design for his residential 2-story villa located in the UAE, Dubai, AL MAMZAR FRONT, with a built-up area of 900 sq. He had requirements and preferences regarding the design; he requested an aesthetic, unique, and functional design that gives hospitality vibes and provides ease and healthiness to their lives.
He wanted privacy for the bedrooms and family rooms while bringing natural light into the villa widely. As a result, MEMAR architecture met his expectations perfectly by designing a unique-shaped villa with a big double-height lobby that gives the feeling of a castle-like atmosphere upon entering the villa and is surrounded by glass walls that create a healthy and happy area.
Nonetheless, MEMAR made use of porcelain tile, which provides privacy in specific areas as needed in a lovely manner. The lobby area was seamlessly integrated with the landscape thanks to clear floor-to-ceiling sliding windows, which the MEMAR design team used to satisfy the client’s request. This outdoor space has a waterfall that cascades from the ground floor cantilever into the pool, and it feels like a natural private extension of the villa’s interior. The tranquil sounds of running water can be heard from this water feature.
People’s stress levels can be reduced and their bodies and minds can be relaxed by the sounds of water. The swimming pool in the villa is infinite, and the waterfalls go from the pool to the basement wall.
- Materials elements that reduce the building’s energy consumption:
Instead of real stone, porcelain tiles were utilised on the building’s exterior. These porcelain tiles also do a good job of retaining heat.
Owing to the composition of the insulating tiles, once the heat has passed through, they will effectively retain the heat and keep the interiors warmer for longer, which lowers the need for air conditioning, particularly in the hot UAE.
Moreover, glass was employed since it reduces the requirement for artificial lighting and, as a result, the corresponding portion of energy usage.
Main materials used in the appearance and finish of the structure:
The main materials used are glass and porcelain tile materials for the exterior building; unlike any other material, glass can transmit, absorb or refract light. As a result, it can be both translucent and transparent. Such characteristics add extraordinary beauty to the building. Moreover, porcelain tiles were also used with an outstanding appearance, as porcelain tile is characterized by its strength, hardness, purity, and high wear resistance. We also added a touch of wood for a warm feeling to the building.
The interior design of the entrance is creative and breathtaking. It has an open layout and white columns from the bottom to the top of the ceiling of the villa, reflecting our client’s personality and pushing the experience level to the maximum.
Also, a special feature of this design is the bridge on the upper floor, which links different parts of the villa strikingly in a creative way
