Pacific Palisade

Pacific Palisade climbs a steep jungle hillside above Bang Po. Twenty-nine individual villas are stepped down the slope so that each one looks over the roofs below to the sea and the neighbouring islands.

The architecture is white and horizontal: wide overhanging roofs, slim columns and full-height sliding glass that opens the living spaces to the outdoors. Infinity pools run along the edge of each plot and seem to pour into the bay.

Outside, timber-slat pergolas filter the sun over the dining tables, the outdoor kitchens and the lounges set around fire tables. Inside, light oak, cream stone and woven rattan keep the rooms calm and bright, and the bathrooms open onto the view, with tubs set against the glass.
