A dwelling conceived at the intersection of Mediterranean warmth and Korean spatial contemplation. Clean concrete planes and white plaster surfaces frame the infinite blue beyond, creating thresholds between the built and the boundless.
Every wall is a decision. Every opening, an invitation to the horizon.
White-washed walls absorb the golden hour. Sandstone steps descend toward salt air. Terracotta tiles underfoot carry centuries of craft. Each material is chosen for how it ages with the sea wind — growing more beautiful with time.
Every window is a composition. Rectangular voids cut into thick walls become frames for the landscape beyond. The architecture does not compete with the view — it curates it, selecting precisely what the eye will find.

the courtyard between sea and stone
Morning light enters from the east, casting long shadows across plaster walls. By afternoon, the rooms glow amber. At dusk, the sea becomes a mirror — and the house, a lantern on the cliff edge.
Each moment, the sea presents a different composition of color and motion. Still mornings show a flat plane of silver-blue. Storms bring dark geometries of wave against rock. The architecture holds steady while the view transforms endlessly.
“The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.”
— Jacques Cousteau
