This villa in Riyadh explores clean architectural lines and simple forms shaped by local motifs and tactile materials. Divided between intimate veneer-clad spaces and open sandstone volumes, the project combines handcrafted textures, natural light, and warm monochrome tones to create a calm yet expressive atmosphere.

This villa in Riyadh was shaped by a pursuit of clean lines and simple forms framed by local motifs.

The project is divided into two material-based blocks: an intimate entrance zone finished in veneer with adjoining private rooms, and shared spaces defined by sandstone.

The living room acts as the central point, opening onto a panorama of stone masonry and an inner courtyard framed by a walnut veneer portal.

A marble staircase with a cantilevered structure is complemented by storage with woven wooden facades.

The double-height space is enhanced by a luminous ceiling, bringing in more daylight and preserving a sense of openness and airiness. The main focus was placed on handcrafted materials: a kilim rug, textured wood, a woven lamp, and rattan cabinetry.

The dining area, featuring a limestone-clad wall, is paired with woven chairs and a dark oak table in a monochrome palette. The sideboard intentionally differs in tone, highlighting the accent wall with its art piece.

A wood-clad ceiling creates the intimate atmosphere of a cave, while light white textiles on the curtains and lamps add the relaxed feeling of southern terraces.
