Kish Coral Villas
A cluster of twelve beachfront villas with perforated walls and shaded courts, designed for the heat and humidity of the Persian Gulf.
The traditional architecture of the Gulf islands, from Bandar Lengeh to Qeshm, is known for white walls, timber oriels and narrow shaded lanes. This scheme translates those principles into contemporary holiday villas.
Shade, breeze and privacy
The villas are clustered so that they shade one another. Outer walls are built from perforated concrete blocks finished in lime wash, letting sea breezes through while blocking direct views. Each villa has a small court with a shallow pool that cools the passing air.
The concrete frame is complete, and façades and landscaping with salt-tolerant native planting are now under way.
