More About Skgarden Villas Residential Development
Commissioned by Lebanese developer Can Do Contractors, Skygarden Villas are nestled on a cliff of Yalıkavak. While searching for architectural conception, the aim was to create simple and rational structure from the functionality, construction and exploitation point of view. Homes feature balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows and terraces providing panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. The building’s interiors were made to organically flow from indoor to outdoor living while keeping a strong sense on the privacy as well.
