“Treetop Jungle Villas Frame Ocean Views in Costa Rican Beach Town.”
Makai Villas, an Architectural Marvel by Studio Saxe
Makai Villas, a creation by Studio Saxe, renowned as one of the top luxury architects in Costa Rica, emerges as a trio of architecturally distinct villas in Nosara. Poised elegantly on a mountain ridge, these villas are conveniently located, offering easy access to both the beach and the town, and are complemented by breathtaking ocean vistas. As a leader in green architecture, the firm’s design philosophy is evident in the hallmark distinctive roof pavilions, which ensure privacy and facilitate an effortless integration with the natural landscape.
Each villa is strategically positioned to capture spectacular oceanic views, ensuring privacy while fostering a harmonious dialogue with the lush jungle surroundings. The design’s striking geometric rooflines are meticulously crafted to accommodate the existing trees, enhancing and respecting the natural setting, which is a signature approach of Costa Rica architects.
The steep terrain challenged Studio Saxe to design homes that use their structure to stabilize the hillside, allowing for vertical construction. This innovative approach gives every room a unique view, highlighting the firm’s expertise in merging structural integrity with environmental sensitivity. This project exemplifies how architecture firms in Nosara and across Costa Rica are pushing the boundaries of design with sustainable and aesthetic solutions.
