THE HAVEN | VILLAS DEVELOPMENT

From the portfolio of Amit Mody

Located along the white beaches of Tiwi, in Kenya, this deep long plot comprises of 103 serviced apartments and 83 exquisite villas. The masterplan and architecture seek to provide a layered sense of space, from the public retail spine, to the more intimate residential villa clusters, finally leading to the interiors of individual plots. This is achieved through a series of public and private courtyards creating a sense of grandeur, intimacy and exclusiveness. A unique blend of architecture is created by translating traditional and vernacular materials into a modern-esque language and a theme that identifies with the local spirit. Raw timber cladding, stacked stone and timber roof shingles intermixed with strong modern lines creates a contemporary idiom of architecture.
