Bella Oceana Phase 2: Casa Verde
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

Continuing in the look and feel of the Phase 1 building-type: Lago Vista and intended for short term holiday-lets, the buildings are broken down into smaller blocks comprising size (6) apartments/ floor, totalling 12 apartments over 2 floors. Each block is serviced by a dedicated lift and external staircase. Each apartment measures 40 sq. metres; each ground floor apartment extends further by a 20-sq. metre terrace with has an infinity-edge pool and shaded sundeck, while the upper-floor apartments (identical in design to the ground floor) have a 20-sq. metre balcony. The corner apartments enjoy a larger 30-sq. meter terrace/balcony.
Positioned lower on the hillside, these buildings designed to take advantage the natural beauty of the site and dense vegetation are clean and contemporary in style. Local materials, textures, colours and details including the extended overhangs and red-clay-tiled roof characteristic of the Commune de Colonella ensure the buildings will blend harmoniously into the local context.

Master planned in a terraced manner on the sloping land, car parking and vehicular access is limited to the rear of the buildings only, thereby preserving the natural landscape as much as possible. One car parking space per apartment (total of 12/building) is provided. Garbage collection points are provided as part of the lift and services structures at the rear of each building.
The buildings are separated by 10 metres of greenery and pedestrian walkways leading to meandering paths that take the holiday makers to the nearby beaches.
Each building is designed to be access from the carpark side access from cantilevered walkways services by stairs and lifts at the rear of each unit. A private entrance opens to a long hall-way with a ocean-view that leads to an open plan kitchen, living and dining area also with a ocean-view. Complete floor-to-ceiling invisible-framed glazing blur the boundary between the

inside and out. The hall-way also leads to double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and a high-level mountain-view and a bathroom with a rain-shower.
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 12 units per building the result is a highly efficient and sustainable design. This combined with the modularity in design and construction, Casa Verde will result in a high ROI yield.
