The project
RIVANA is a ground-up luxury residence delivered as a complete TBAD commission: architecture and interior design conceived from the outset as a single, coherent vision.
The architecture and interior design programme has been developed together from the first sketch. Bespoke steel fabrication runs through structural and decorative elements throughout; high-performance glazing systems define the envelope, with frameless glass detailing used extensively to dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior. Aluminium profiles unify the rhythm of the façade across all window and door openings.
Interiors are built from a palette of genuine craft. Hardwood flooring anchors the primary living spaces, with tile and carpet extending across ancillary zones. Custom joinery and feature doors give each room a finished, resolved quality. Lighting is a major design element — specified to work in layers — with feature fireplace elements adding warmth and drama to the principal rooms.
The lifestyle programme is extensive. A swimming pool and dedicated sauna installation sit alongside a fully equipped wellness and fitness suite. Furniture is drawn from premium international and regional brands, selected to complement the material palette without competing with it.
Externally, bespoke steel elements of significant scale are grounded by natural paving and exposed aggregate concrete finishes that connect the residence to its landscape. The result is a home of genuine ambition — privately commissioned, fully resolved, and built to last.
