Costa brava villa is a luxury house placed in the coastline of Catalonia. The villa was designed for a family of three kids with an intern maid. The villa has a total of 340m2 built with 4 bedrooms and a suite, three bathrooms and office. The exterior has a triple waterfall pool facing the coast in south-east, a driveway for two cars and a large grass patio with barbecue area.

​

The villa was part of the design technology coursework where each student had to choose a product and develope it through all the stages. Instead of choosing an everyday product I decided to design a villa in the beautiful coast of Spain where is spend every summer.

​

The development of the product was made the same way as every product. Starting with a brief, a target market and an analysis of existing conditions. After all the analyisis different sketches and solutions where proposed to the client (which was a real family) for them to choose. The next step was to start the design and develop the plans. Since it was a high school project the plans and the development weren't very professional although they were a good way to introduce myself to projecting. I learned how to develop the project, make decisions, represent my ideas in plans and the final product in 3D renders and modelling.

​

The important fact of the project wasn't the product itself or the design, but the feeling I had when doing it. It gave me a first taste of what architecture and designing is like and I had a very good time working on it. This is by far the best experience I can take out of it and cleared my ideas of what I wanted to become in the future.
