Linear concrete volumes build this sleek and luxurious 1,260 square metre home design, located in Son Vida, Palma, Spain. Created by Osvaldo Luppi Architects, the deluxe villa features extensive terraces, which include a large outdoor swimming pool to enjoy under the Mediterranean sun. Outdoor living areas make the most of long days and warm nights on the south-facing multi-level terraces, which are stepped to follow the topography of the hillside. Walls of glass retract to adjoin the exterior with interior volumes, where clean white & grey walls and golden wood tone meld in marvellous spaces. Be sure to check out the walkthrough video of this spectacular Mediterranean villa at the end of the tour.
The modern facade slices crisply into the rolling hillside of this sought after residential area, which is referred to locally as the ‘Beverly HIlls of Mallorca’.
In this elevated position, Villa Marola boasts fabulous views over the capital city of Palma and the surrounding countryside.
The luxury house exterior comes alive at night, issuing great lengths of light from its glass fronted volume.
Inside the luxurious property, clean white & pale grey walls colour a fresh feel, whilst golden wood tone adds a mellow warmth.
The living room is an airy space with a simple yet stylish composition of modern lounge furniture. An L-shaped sofa gently hugs the perimeter of a rounded rectangle coffee table, opposite a couple of swivel armchairs. A modern fireplace and log store cuts darkly into the back wall, setting a stripe of contrast against the matt white paintwork.
The contemporary tufted sofa and chic lounge chairs pale into insignificance against the spellbinding view of Palma. Retractable glass walls let in the blissful breeze.
At night, the surrounding hills twinkle magically with the lights of the capital city. Inside, recessed spotlights distribute an even glow, whilst perimeter LEDs highlight the texture of a wood slatted TV feature wall.
Built-in units float a few inches above the floor tile to maintain the perception of open space in the clean layout. A planter is bedded into the top to create a run of greenery through the dining room, all the way to the fireplace in the lounge.
Another bed of plants is cut right into the floor of the hallway, which creates a sense connection with the green hillside location. Textured concrete ripples a cool backdrop, whilst wood wall cladding offers a counteracting smooth finish and warmth.
The rectangular pool shimmers across the front of the interior lounge and dining space, whilst the outdoor lounge aligns with the kitchen.
A modern outdoor sofa is positioned for comfortably taking in the views.
A huge white marble and wood grain kitchen island faces toward the wide pool terrace and the sweeping panorama. Unique kitchen pendant lights fall at varying heights to create a sculptural installation of lustrous copper.
The luxurious white marble and wooden finishes continue across the back wall of the kitchen, where a deeply recessed planter is built into the backsplash to simulate a mini landscape view in the windowless wall.
A sculptural staircase design connects all three levels of the villa, rising from the access area at the base of the property, through the main living level and up to the private bedrooms.
Solid wood balustrades carve out a rise of asymmetrical geometry.
Wood slatted feature walls bring texture to the stairwell, which is exaggerated under concealed LED ribbons.
Upstairs, a master suite and three bedrooms each have their own ensuite bathroom and balcony area. The door to the ensuite and closets are camouflaged within a wall of smooth wood panelling in the master. A glass balustrade allows the majestic hillside views to be enjoyed from an outdoor chair, from the cushioned end of bed bench, or when enjoying breakfast in bed.
A built-in bathtub fills the adjacent wall, positioned perfectly for gazing out at the vista.
Floor vases fashion a pretty moment in a blank hallway.
The property also has an indoor pool down on the access level.
The long driveway that leads up to the home enters the shade of a carport before turning into the garage.
A skylight fills the deep cover with natural light.
Plant beds grow a welcoming entryway.
The restricted palette of materials enhances continuity between interior and exterior areas.
Public floor plan with social living areas, including the main sun terrace, swimming pool, and the outdoor living room. We can also see the long and dramatic driveway approach to the property here. A tall outdoor staircase provides a pedestrian entrance.
On the access floor plan, we can see where the car parking garage is bedded beneath the main living room, and where the indoor swimming pool is situated beneath the sun deck.
The private floor plan illustrates the layout of the master bedroom suite with large ensuite bathroom and private terrace. We can also observe the even distribution of space between the remaining three bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms, and terraces.

On a 1,000 square metre south-facing plot, Villa Anguli overlooks Camp de Mar, Mallorca, from a privileged elevated position. Created by E5 Living, the 399 square metre state-of-the-art Mediterranean residence boasts spectacular sea views that have influenced its geometric architecture and sleek glass facade. Superior interior luxury is realised in chic modern furniture and a clean minimalist approach. White walls, plenty of light and high ceilings make perfect gallery space for a covetable collection of contemporary works by Damien Hirst, Andy Warhol, and Banksy. The artwork injects lively bursts of colour over three floors of seamless spaces that each pull toward the panorama.
Villa Anguli’s geometric architecture projects at a sharp oblique angle from its built-up base on the hillside. This irregular form allows the villa to absorb glorious sea views through the entire width of its sleek glass facade.
An original, wide slatted roof design enhances the geometric nature of the architecture and shades the interior from the strong sunlight.
Isolated high up the hillside, built into the rock, the villa is embraced by breathtaking views of sea and sky.
With views of the cool, sparkling waterfront, there simply had to be a pool up here.
The wide swimming pool design stretches the width of the villa, disappearing abruptly beneath the oblique wing.
A high perimeter wall privately separates the villa from the road.
At night, the exterior lighting scheme ignites excitement around the terraces and tiered grounds of the villa.
Glass balustrades invisibly border an elevated walkway into the villa from the pool deck, leaving the vast windows of the facade unobstructed.
Taking a dip in the swimming pool whilst looking out over the bay feels just like diving into the bright blue sea itself. Cap Andritxol headland rolls in the distance.
An outdoor living room is arranged on the pool terrace, to make the most of the excellent Mediterranean weather. Inside the luxury villa, an interior living room unfolds with a double-sided lounge and a formal dining area. Four large dining room pendant lights descend from the impressive ceiling height at the centre of the space, where more blue skies cut through the white concrete structure.
The lengthier side of the sofa arrangement looks inward toward the fireplace. A comfortable pouf provides a small footrest to get toes toasty in the winter months. A large area rug spreads a cosy, cream base beneath the modern lounge layout. An assortment of grey accent pillows contrast with the cream sofa upholstery.
The wide slatted roof treatment creates light play across the floors and terraces that resembles a deck, or a pier going out to sea.
The interior plan pales within the spectacular architectural manipulation of space and light. Sunlight streams through clerestory windows that frame artistic views of the roofline and skyscape. Retractable walls merge the indoor-outdoor living experience to embrace the island’s beautiful climate.
There is peaceful harmony between the views and interior distribution.
Premium materials shape the modern construction.
Artwork by some of the world’s leading artists provide enthralling colour and character.
Wide open interior spaces, long white walls, high ceilings and plentiful light makes this home a marvellous gallery.
After dark, a wonderful modern lighting scheme of subtle recessed spotlights, perimeter light strips, stair lights and flush-fitted wall lights set the whole place aglow. The distribution of light calls equal attention upon the art and the architecture.
The entire upper level is dedicated to a luxurious master bedroom suite. Up here, a courtyard grows a tropical jungle theme in the centre of the floor plan. On one side, the green interval makes a fabulous headboard feature wall…
..On the opposite side, the encased mini jungle breaks the hallway toward the master bathroom. Fitted closets line the opposite side of the passage.
A walk-out terrace boasts vistas of the coastline.
A narrow interior hallway leads to each of the three first story bedrooms, but they are a also delightfully united on the exterior side by the sun terrace.
The artwork that creates an eye-catching draw to the top of this staircase is Kindness, 2011 by Damien Hirst.
Sandy beaches, water sports, excellent restaurants, cafes, shops, and the 18 hole “Golf de Andratx” course await in Camp de Mar.
Puerto Andratx lays just 5 minutes drive away for more bars, restaurants, shopping, boutiques and the yacht club.
Palma’s International Airport is just a 25 minute drive.
On the ground floor plan, we can see the even scale of three double bedrooms, each with their own ensuite bathroom. Sliding glass doors unify the bedrooms with the outdoor space and swimming pool. We can also observe the angular nature of the open plan living area, which cuts across the cantilevered sun terrace. The ground floor of the villa has been evenly split between indoor and outdoor living spaces, with retractable walls blurring the boundary.
The upper floor plan illustrates the master suite in detail. The actual bedroom is situated right at the front of the villa to plant the bed up by the view. The bedroom also links with its own sun terrace, which is laid upon the oblique angle of the living room below.
There is also a spacious, private roof terrace. A parking garage for three cars is located at the back of the villa, and leads directly to lift access to all floors.
