The Punta Brava 2 Residence was designed by Barcelona-based studio DNA Barcelona Architectsand is located in Costa Brava, Catalonia, Spain. The imposing 5,636 square foot home overlooks the Mediterranean Sea and was especially design to balance intimacy and openness towards nature. According to the architects, the location of this residence was determined by the “slope of the plot, providing a home to two levels with terrace and gardens that surround it, establishing a direct link between the interior and exterior at all times.

Therefore it is decided to locate the house on the highest point of land, to ensure the views, while the pool and garden are at the bottom. At the top level are the entrances to the house and common areas like living room, kitchen and sun terrace.

At the main entrance is accessed from the street above, either by car or on foot, through a majestic path across the garden. The distribution of this top volume is designed to ensure the enjoyment of the terrace with fantastic sea views and sunsets”.
