Wali Nikiti 坐落在英属维尔京群岛大灌木丛岛上一个非常私密的地方,是一座真正充满灵感和灵感的别墅。
在 Wali Nikiti,室内和室外生活是一回事。
业主依靠创新材料和艺术繁荣来打造他们独一无二的露天房屋。
瓦利尼基蒂 (Wali Nikiti) 被金雀花棕榈树和松节油树的枝叶包裹,是一个宁静的避风港,坐落在延伸至大西洋的两英亩土地上。两居室的主屋于 2010 年完工。计划在主屋周围建造五栋非常私密的小屋。所有五间小屋都设计为使用天然巨石和植被提供户外淋浴,以提供隐私。树叶覆盖的台阶构成了通往主入口门廊的入口,门廊上有两根硬木 Yourola 树干作为柱子。一扇 5' x 8' 的门由 Purple Heart 和 Kabukalli 面板制成,在支点上打开,露出 Wali Nikiti 的上层生活水平。整个房屋由混凝土和硬木建造,令人印象深刻的 50 英尺周长硬木梁和合成茅草屋顶盖住了房子。屋顶经受住了飓风的伊尔玛和玛丽亚所能抛出的一切,并完好无损地出来了!事实上,对房屋的损坏确实很小,而且几乎没有什么已经基本修复了。
这座房子有颜料色的混凝土地板,设计成不同的层次,从内部形成一个有机的、吸引人的景观:每一层都描绘了房子的区域。 Wali Nikiti 的核心是定制设计的厨房,专门用于展示、指导和邀请客人参与烹饪艺术。烹饪中心设有带专业炉灶的中心岛、燃木烤箱和用于制作木烤菜肴的乡村壁炉。一个浅的 5' Carrara 大理石水槽沿着后墙延伸。餐点可以在带顶棚的用餐区或户外用餐区供应,就在 20' x 10' 游泳池和木制甲板区对面。从厨房区域往下走几步,您就会进入朝北的起居区。视野最远可以看到大西洋,在冬季,您可能会看到突破口的鲸鱼。大型内置混凝土沙发上铺有舒适的枕头,营造出放松和宁静的氛围。从起居区走下,您将进入舒适的媒体室,媒体室设有低矮的内置座椅。起居区的右侧是用餐区,由一堵矮墙围起来,以免挡住海景。毗邻的游泳池比餐厅地板高出 3 英尺,瀑布般的水流从那里流过,营造出舒缓的流水声。一张可容纳12人的大餐桌占据了用餐区。整栋房子采用自然大地色调设计,以硬木为主要建筑材料。民族艺术品作为装饰元素。在较低的睡眠层,格子木百叶窗让自然微风在两间风扇冷却的双人客房中不断循环。每间卧室均设有私人室外淋浴。房间可以从上层的两个楼梯进入。
整个 Wali Nikiti 不寻常的细节结合起来创造了一个独特的生活空间:从嵌有光纤照明彩色玻璃段的台面到悬挂着藤蔓灯的悬挂树枝,再到 14 英尺实心铁木餐桌,再到地面- 交错层次的彩色混凝土地板,到缓缓流入用餐区的瀑布,Wali Nikiti 绝非意想不到的平凡。
Perched in a very private spot on Big Scrub Island in the British Virgin Islands, Wali Nikiti is a truly inspired and inspirational Villa.
At Wali Nikiti indoor and outdoor living are one and the same.
The owners relied on innovative materials and artistic flourish to create their one-of-a-kind, open-air house.
Cocooned in foliage from Broom Palms and Turpentine trees, Wali Nikiti is a tranquil haven set in two acres of land spilling down to the Atlantic Ocean. The two-bedroom main house was completed in 2010. There are plans for five, very private cottages to be built around the main house. All five cottages are designed to have outdoor showers using the natural boulders and vegetation to afford privacy. Leaf-canopied steps form the approach to the main entrance porch where two hardwood, Yourola tree trunks feature as columns. A 5’ x 8’ door made of panels of Purple Heart and Kabukalli pivots open on a fulcrum to reveal the upper living level of Wali Nikiti. Constructed of concrete and hardwood throughout, an impressive 50-foot circumference hardwood beam and synthetic-thatch roof caps the house. The roof withstood everything Hurricane’s Irma and Maria could throw at it and came out intact! In fact damage to the home really was minimal and what little there was has largely been repaired.
The house, with pigment colored concrete floors, is designed in different levels to form an organic and appealing view from within: Each level delineates the areas of the house. The heart of Wali Nikiti is the custom designed kitchen specifically built to demonstrate, instruct, and invite guest participation in the art of cooking. The culinary hub features a center island with a professional stove, a wood burning oven and a country fireplace for creating wood grilled dishes. A shallow 5’ Carrara marble sink runs along the back wall. Meals can be served in the covered dining area or in the al fresco eating area, just across from the 20’ x 10’ pool and wooden deck area. Descending a few steps down from the kitchen area you come into the living area, which faces out to the north. The view is as far as you can see to the Atlantic Ocean, where during the wintertime you may spot breaching whales. The large built-in concrete couch, covered in comfortable pillows to create an area of relaxation and tranquility. Stepping down from the living area, you enter the cozy media room with low slung, built-in seating. To the right of the living area is the dining area, enclosed by a low wall so as not to block the view towards the sea. Adjoining is the swimming pool, 3 feet higher than the dining room floor, where a cascade of water flows, creating a soothing sound of running water. A large dining table that can accommodate 12 people dominates the dining area. The entire house is designed in natural earth tones with hardwood featured as the dominant building material. Ethnic objects d’art feature as the decorative element. On the lower sleeping level, lattice wooden shutters allow a constant natural breeze to circulate in the two, fan-cooled double guest rooms. Each bedroom has a private outside shower. The rooms can be accessed from the upper level from two stairways.
Unusual detailing throughout Wali Nikiti combines to create a unique living space: From a counter top embedded with segments of fiber-optic lit colored glass to the suspended tree limbs sporting vine-held lights to the 14’ solid slab of ironwood dining table to the earth-tone pigmented concrete floors on staggered levels, to the gentle waterfall that cascades into the dining area, Wali Nikiti is anything but predictable and ordinary.
