The design mood of Pearl residence project reflects a contemporary modern spirit,
with a dynamic interpretation of the unique site limitations.
Playful folds of stone walls with ultra modern metal screens are suggested to create
the architectural image of the buildings, complementing the vibrant concentric
curved urban design of the master plan, and resulting in a strong always interesting
project character, with a powerful architectural and urban image.
Urban/ Architectural design functionality:
As the design complements the curved site nature with a “Clustered Crescent urban
planning, providing an adequate reach distance from every unit to the sea, and best
view orientation benefiting from the unique site opportunities and allowing for a
semi private green spaces between units, yet the design preserves the uniqueness of
the sea view for shore first line villas, with their privacy ensured through a green
buffer between them and the sandy beach.
