Villa Arena is a resort-style compound designed to become an extension of the hill it sits on, following the natural contours rather than flattening them out. The site is steep and genuinely challenging, and the design turns that difficulty to its advantage. A three-bedroom villa sits above a multipurpose court, running track, recording studio, gymnasium, sauna and outdoor dining and entertainment spaces, each oriented to capture the expansive sea views.

The standout move is a pool that hangs over the court at an angle, complete with a pool window that opens a striking visual link between the two levels. It is a compound built for an active life, stacked cleverly on a slope where a flatter approach would simply have failed.
