STUNNING OCEANFRONT VILLA HARBOUR ISLAND, ELEUTHERA
Sandbank Ocean Villa
Sandbank Ocean Villa on the famous Pink Sands Beach on Harbour Island has a design that utilizes natural materials to conceive a house that reflects the island's sense of place. Among the innovations of the design is the ipe-wood shutter system, which wraps around each of the three small, function- specific wings (sleeping, living, kitchen). The idea of the master bedroom is to sleep under the grand canopy of the peaked roof, lulled to sleep by island cross breezes from the bay and ocean beyond. A wood wall separates the bedroom from the bath.
At the oceanfront elevation, the projecting wings of the kitchen, right, and master bedroom, left, establish a patio space with a trellis. The unfurnished ipe walls and cedar roof create a subdued visual counterpoint to the greens of the organic landscape treatment, the work of the owner, and the Bahamian sky.
