Casa Duna is located on the border between the dunes and the built-up area of a small coastal town in the province of Valencia. This house is the result of the sum of the patterns of Mediterranean architecture under a contemporary and abstract point of view: the luminosity and warmth of the Mediterranean from the conceptualisation and language of Ram\u00f3n Esteve Estudio<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

The house is formed by a white concrete envelope that generates a large protective shell for a harmonious and delicate interior, where light wood and natural stone predominate. The large overhangs and the slat system protect the house from the salt spray, the sun and the views from the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project seeks maximum integration with the Mediterranean dune ecosystem, so the landscaping is characterised by the use of native shrub species such as grasses and palms.<\/p>\n\n\n

The longitudinal facades offer a contrasting image, the west facade is protected from the harshest hours of sunlight and views from the street, while the west facade allows for greater transparency and direct views of the beach.<\/p>\n\n

The ground floor concentrates the day rooms and generates a fluid distribution with visual connections between the different rooms. The programme is replicated outside, protected by the large overhangs. The terraces are crowned by a large swimming pool located at the edge of the plot.<\/p>\n\n\n

The night-time rooms are concentrated on the first floor and are also reflected in the exterior.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ram\u00f3n Esteve Estudio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ram\u00f3n Esteve founded the studio in 1991 with the conviction that architecture was a global discipline. It currently brings together a team of professionals connected by the pursuit of a common goal, to generate creative responses in the environment by creating unique places, objects and brands, a place where architects, designers and creatives work together in the development of projects with character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Ram\u00f3n Esteve’s studio, architecture and design are complementary disciplines that mutually enrich each other and are, in a way, inseparable. They begin any work by paying attention to all the parameters that contain it with the aim of achieving a result with maximum clarity, simplicity, order and harmony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their identity is evident in their work. The responsibility for a job well done forces them to focus on the details and to take care of the complete development of an idea. What is initially just a thought or an idea, evolves with effort and perseverance to become a reality, a space or an object. They take care of the process as much as the result, which is why the experience of a project goes from the first minute to its materialisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The constants of his work are the search for harmony, serenity, timelessness, atmosphere, universality, contextualisation. Harmony, the result of the generation of systems, as a relationship between the whole and the parts, the projects are born from an idea, a generating idea that directs the whole process from the origin in the conception, to the very outcome in its execution. Serenity, as a result of the search for balance in the relationship between forms and within its geometric universe. Timelessness, born in a specific moment, but with the will to try to evoke the greatest amount of time. Atmosphere, enveloping as a result of the happy combination of the elements matter and light, so that the only reading is their fusion. Universality, forms as a consequence of the synthesis of ideas, bringing the design of the elements closer to their conceptual idea, moving away from projecting with recognisable identity resources. Contextualisation, implementation as the dialogue with the physical and cultural environment, such as the use of resources linked to the place. The result is a work that conveys essentiality, that contains the complexity and density of a work resolved to the extreme detail, whose aim is the creation of places where one wants to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the historic centre of Valencia they work on both national and international projects.<\/p>\n\n\n
