Guadalmar, Málaga
The townhouse complex in Guadalmar occupies a privileged beachfront position on the Málaga coast, with direct beach access and Mediterranean views from the terraces and roof areas of the homes. The project designs a low-density development that takes full advantage of its proximity to the sea without compromising the environmental quality of the complex.
The urban layout arranges the homes in rows grouped around communal spaces — swimming pools, landscaped areas and tennis courts — generating a human-scale residential fabric that engages with the natural coastal environment. The two-storey townhouse volumes with pitched tiled roofs respond to the constructive tradition of the Andalusian coastline adapted to contemporary comfort standards.
The residential programme combines the privacy of a detached house with the benefits of shared communal spaces. Each home has a private patio or terrace, while the complex shares several pools of varying sizes, tennis courts and extensive green areas that articulate the relationship between the different groups of homes. The aerial view of the complex reveals a careful layout that maximises south-facing orientation and sea views for the greatest possible number of units.
