Villas Alba Residential

Villas Alba

Villas Alba is a pair of twin villas located on the island of Sentosa in Singapore, facing the sea and an adjacent golf course. The name Alba means sunrise in Italian, and the semi-circular form recalls the sun rising on the horizon. A terracotta roof in red and orange hues and a travertine facade give the villas warm tones. Inside, the color palette follows a gradation of sunrise tones. Extensive glazing and a timber pool deck link the living and dining space to the landscape. An attic sitting room overlooks an elevated courtyard.

Villas Alba Residential by Mercurio Design Lab S.r.l. was identified as an outstanding representation of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Villas Alba Residential was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2021. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design award that celebrates exceptional design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
