Lagoon Villa, Côte d’Ivoire

Lagoon Villa, an extraordinary architectural residence that seamlessly blends the vibrancy of Abidjan’s cityscape with the serene beauty of the Ébrié Lagoon. Designed by SAOTA with interior design by Claude Missir, this villa epitomises modernist architecture while embracing the natural environment.

Lagoon Villa's design creates a unique dialogue between indoor and outdoor spaces, thanks to its innovative features like a permeable roof with skylights and tiered courtyards. These elements blur the lines between nature and living space, enhancing the home's connection to the lagoon and surrounding park-like garden.

This design was influenced by the client's desire to enhance the home's connection to the lagoon and its surrounding environment.

With Lagoon Villa, SAOTA and Claude Missir have crafted a modernist retreat that not only celebrates architectural innovation but also fosters sustainability and a harmonious connection with nature.
