Project Description

Located on the tranquil eastern coast of Sentosa Island, Sentosa Cove, the desired architectural style of Mistral is to be generally tropical and to fit into the context of Sentosa Cove. In addition, the brief called for optimal use of natural materials, sustainable strategies and to observe certain fengshui requirements.

Mistral's design was sculpted with the spirit of ocean, a speedboat with a cabin and flying bridge in a clear attempt to break free from the rigid shape of a straight structure and four walls. Named after the seasonal strong, north-westerly wind that blows across the Mediterranean, Mistral is like a sleek yacht swathed in all white with a metallic tinge. The structural elements are expressed both externally and internally, simultaneously referencing a boat and communicating the sense of a strong forward thrust.

There is total integration, just as the project as a whole is assimilated with building design, interior architecture, decoration, furnishings and art works, but moreover, it reflects fengshui, harmonising wind and water. Villa Mistral, therefore, embodies an island character that makes it stand out among other pitched-roof houses in the vicinity.
