Son Vida House

Mallorca, Spain
Independent design study · Concept study — not built

Son Vida House is a study in natural light, material restraint and contemporary Mediterranean living, set in the Mallorcan landscape.

Warm plaster, honed stone, walnut and linen make a tactile, understated ground; polished metal and a small number of sharper pieces give the rooms their edge.

The softness of the island setting is held against architectural detailing, so the house reads as calm rather than rustic.

Light does the rest, revealing texture and grain and shifting the tone of each room across the day.
