Architecture


Marbella, Spain, 2013:

Modern Villas started in this wonderful Mediterranean playground for the richest Europeans, Russians and Arabs, with the most amazing golf and gated communities…

but also, with a certain lack of modern, high quality architecture, design and construction.

We saw the opportunity to turn our passion for modern minimalist design into a business.

So we pioneered modern villas in Marbella, creating a number of designs that combined time-tested “modernist” designs with a warm, understated brand of minimalist luxury.

Unique enough to stand out, timeless enough to be enjoyed forever.

With Belgian and Brazilian founders, modern minimalism is part of our DNA

All our clients were based abroad, so we learned how to work with clients & builders who are thousands of miles apart, and how to deal with different languages, cultures and building methods.

Clients usually had only a few days in Marbella – so we needed to be extremely fast. That´s why we embraced the most advanced “virtual building” technologies (BIM, and more recently AI).

This means we make a very detailed, virtual 3D model of the home, so one can literally walk through the design, and feel exactly what the house will look and feel like! (Look at our Youtube to see what we mean.)

Today, all this experience allows us to deliver high end architecture and design, even in difficult places, efficiently and with minimum of hassle for the client.

With teams spanning across all time zones, we´ve worked from Marbella to Miami, from Africa to Australia, from Brazil to the Caribbean… Where will your home be?
