Impeccably designed with all round wellness in mind, here is a retreat that pampers not only the body but also the senses with its contemporary luxe interior.
Creativity really knows no bounds, especially when it comes to building designs but every once in a while, one with a simple yet striking design comes along and takes your breath away. Such is the case with the Pavilion Ponderosa, a project, which spans across 0.86 acres of land inside a high-end gated area, just next to a prominent golf course in Malaysia.
While the land space is vast, the actual pavilion takes up only one half of the land; the other is occupied up by a beautiful swimming pool as well as some other recreational facilities. Besides requiring a prestigious pavilion and recreational parts, the client’s brief also states the need for the building to be a regenerative retreat and a structure that could release expansiveness and enclosure.
Surrounded by nature all around, the obvious challenge is to capture the essence of the ‘place’ and strike a balance between nature and modernism. Commissioned to overcome this obstacle is Paolo Cucchi architects (PCA), a multi-disciplinary architectural practice with almost three decades of experience. Founding principal and design director Paolo Cucchi obtained his Master of architecture degree at I.U.A.V. – university of architecture of Venice. Based in Italy and Malaysia, the firm’s commitment is to produce architecture of quality, with attention to detail and exploration of materials.
