1. LET NATURE IN

The key to maximizing the views is to allow light and the landscape to take center stage. In areas like Marbella, Málaga, for example, the sun shines almost all year round and the landscape is a constant gift, with panoramic windows, from floor to ceiling, allowing you to enjoy them to the fullest. This type of design creates a sense of spaciousness and connection with the surroundings, eliminating visual barriers. Choose minimalist frames in neutral or metallic tones that do not compete with the view, such as those found in luxury properties like La Zagaleta, Sierra Blanca, or Sotogrande.

2. MAKE THE MOST OF THE BEST PERSPECTIVES

Terraces and balconies are essential for enjoying outdoor views. They are natural extensions of the interiors and ideal settings for admiring the horizon, the Mediterranean Sea, or the majestic mountains surrounding Marbella and Mijas. Ensure they are strategically located in areas of the house that capture the best perspectives of your villa, as seen in the exclusive areas of Guadalmina or the hills of Estepona.

3. ENJOY THE OUTDOORS

Outdoor spaces are essential for fully enjoying the natural surroundings of your villa. Use resting areas like pergolas, gazebos, or even an outdoor living room with comfortable sofas and soft cushions. These areas invite relaxation while contemplating the landscape. An infinity pool, for example, can be an iconic element that not only provides a recreational space but also acts as a water mirror that amplifies the beauty of the views. Take advantage of the location to align it with the horizon, creating a sense of continuity with the landscape that can be enjoyed in developments like Los Monteros or Nueva Andalucía.

4. A LAYOUT THAT WINS YOU OVER

The distribution of the interior spaces has a direct impact on how the views are enjoyed. Position the most frequently used areas, such as the living room, dining room, and master bedroom, facing the most spectacular landscapes. This not only enhances the daily experience but also increases the perceived value of the property. If your villa is in iconic areas like Sierra Blanca or Benahavís, make sure to maximize the connection with the natural surroundings of the region.

5. THE FINAL KEY

Maximizing the views of a villa is no easy task, and having a good architectural study is essential to achieving flawless results. An experienced architect will know how to integrate your villa with the landscape, enhancing every corner of your home.
