  • Overview

  • Overview

Obsidian Residences are conceived as a series of villas where architecture becomes a sculptural act. Defined by volcanic tones and angular geometries, the project explores shadow, reflection, and contrast. Each villa frames its own dialogue between opacity and light, mass and transparency, creating living environments that are both bold and discreet.

  • Objective

The objective of Obsidian Residences is to reimagine the villa as a statement of identity. By using dark stone as the central material, the project seeks to craft homes that are simultaneously grounded and theatrical. Each residence becomes an emblem of distinction — an address as much as a dwelling.

The design process focused on balancing monumentality with livability. Facades were developed as layered stone planes, interrupted by glass openings that reveal controlled interiors. Material studies emphasized texture: polished obsidian-like stone contrasted with rougher finishes, producing depth and tactility. The villas were arranged as an ensemble, ensuring both privacy and cohesion within the development.

Obsidian Residences introduce a new vocabulary for residential enclaves. Their impact lies in their unapologetic materiality — embracing darkness, shadow, and reflection as design tools. The project positions architecture not just as background, but as presence: villas that stand as sculptural landmarks in the metropolitan landscape.
