Design study for an outdoor beach club bar at dusk, lit shelving and olive trees
Hospitality Venue — Design Study

Beach Club

A design study for a beach club built low and pale against the sand — a run of curtained cabanas, sunken plunge pools and an outdoor bar that opens straight onto the terrace at dusk.

The study proposes a repeating rhythm of cabanas, each one curtained in raw linen and shaded by an olive tree, with a shallow plunge pool set into the stone path between them, leading the eye straight out to the sea.

The bar sits at the heart of the club, open-sided and lit low along its base, backed by a full run of shelved bottles — built for the transition from afternoon swimming to an evening crowd.

Materials stay deliberately plain throughout — pale lime render, stone paving, unbleached linen — so the planting and the light are what change the mood from midday to dusk.

Material approach

Materials considered

The palette stays close to the beach itself: pale lime render, natural stone paving and unbleached linen at every cabana, chosen to weather well in salt air. Terracotta planters and a run of shelved glassware at the bar are the only warm notes against an otherwise quiet, sand-toned material set.
