VILA VIVAS

A warm, layered interior for a contemporary Algarve villa, where natural stone, soft texture and sculptural light come together to create a home that feels calm, generous and quietly luxurious. 

For this project, Donna set out to create a cohesive interior built around a soft, earthy palette. Travertine tables, deep textured sofas and tactile fabrics bring an easy warmth to the living spaces, while statement lighting adds moments of drama throughout, from a crystal chandelier above the dining table to gilded coral lamps in the bedrooms. 

Each room has its own character. In one bedroom, rich ochre velvet and brass wall lights create a sense of golden warmth. In another, a sculptural chandelier and soft greys bring a more serene, refined feel. Even the smallest spaces were considered, with a natural stone basin and brushed copper fittings giving the bathroom a sense of quiet indulgence.  The result is a home that feels both elegant and lived in, where every piece has been chosen to sit beautifully alongside the next. 

The approach  to refurnishing of the villa:
A warm, natural palette of stone, linen and soft neutrals
Statement lighting to bring character to every room 
Carefully sourced furniture, textiles and finishing touches
