Villa Saba is a private summer house located in front of the sea, whose design of elongated cubic volumes and continuous structure, together with the choice of materials, have been inspired by the landscape that surrounds it. The project, winner of the 2022 Asia International Award, has included more than 6,000 square meters of the ultra-compact Dekton surface spread over the façade, cladding, and interior and exterior flooring. For the façade, which has been projected in two colours, Dekton Kadum has been installed on the second floor and Edora, for the first one. The garden paving has been continued using the same material from the multinational Cosentino, as well as the pool surfaces. The floor of the common areas of the interior, in addition to the cladding and flooring of a bathroom, has been dressed with Dekton Opera.

With a detail of tiles in this same color on a steel surface, the minimalist and light design of the main staircase stands out, which, like the rest of the Balinese villa, aims to recreate the nature that sorrunds it. Saba State está estratégicamente concebida para ofrecer privacidad, a la vez que funde el interior con la espectacular vista natural del exterior. The position of the structure is designed to maximize the connection with the environment while preserving the interior of the house from the extreme tropical climate of the island southeast. For this reason, its spatial architecture is characterized by the inclusion of interior patios that encourage cross ventilation. In addition, the main rooms have direct access to the infinity pool overlooking the ocean. Along with the ultra-compact Dekton surface, aluminum has been used, which met the expectations of lightness, strength and low corrosion.
