Bella Oceana Phase 1: Lago Vista
Situated in the quaint historical commune named Colonella on the north east coast of Italy, Bella Oceana, the multi-phased master-planned residential community will be located within walking distance of the endless beaches and clear waters of the Mediterranean. Covering a staggering 200,000-sq. metres the master plan by Rashid Taqui Architects and Engineers harnesses the natural beauty of the site characterised by rolling hills dotted with greenery. A river flows through the site that widens at the centre of the plot, forming a lake surrounded by lush dense vegetation, home to an amazing array of wildlife.

The masterplan divides the site into hierarchical community to cater for a varied range of potential residents in affordability and background and reflected in the different building types offered in the three planned phases:
1. Phase 1: Lago Vista
2. Phase 2: Casa Verde
3. Phase 3: Belvedere

Aimed at the entry level young couples, the buildings are designed as compact linear blocks made-up of identical units, each with a built-up-area of 40 sq. metres internally with balconies/ terraces stretching to 15-25 sq. metres each. The buildings are designed to take advantage of the views to the Mediterranean ocean, are clean and contemporary in style. Local materials, textures, colours and details the extended overhangs and red-clay-tiled roof characteristic of the Commune de Colonella ensure the buildings will blend harmoniously into the local context.
Each unit is designed to be access from the carpark side access from cantilevered walkways services by stairs and lifts at the end of each unit. A private entrance leads to an open plan kitchen with a mountain-view and living/dining area with an ocean-view. Branching off to the left of the

hallways is the bedroom which also has an ocean-view. The Bedroom is annexed by walk-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom with a rain-shower and a mountain-view. With floor-to-ceiling invisible-frame glazing, both the bedroom and the living room open completely to large balconies or terraces. The ground floor apartments are also equipped with infinity edge pools and planted wooden sun-decks shaded by contemporary wooden pergolas.
Car parking and vehicular access is limited to the rear of the building only, thereby preserving the natural landscape as much as possible. One car parking space per apartment (total of 39) is provided. Garbage collection points are provided as part of the lift and services structures at the end of each block.

Sustainability is key component of the design. While extended roof overhangs provide shading to the glazed facades, all external windows are fitted with sliding wooden louvers to protect from direct sunlight and reduce heat gain. And, as all apartments are planned as ‘through’ units, owners can enjoy the cool Mediterranean breeze by opening the doors/ windows on both sides for natural cross ventilation and thereby reducing the demand for mechanical cooling and/or air-conditioning.
With 13 units on each floor, offering a total of 39 units per building the result is a highly efficient and sustainable design. This combined with the modularity in design and construction, Bella Oceana Phase 1 will result in a high ROI yield.
