Designed for the view
Every villa on the Plateau Dominant was individually oriented by the architecture team to maximise views over the lagoon and golf course, while ensuring solar protection and natural thermal comfort.
Natural ventilation
Systematic trade wind orientation, adjustable louvres, double-height living areas to encourage natural convection.
Controlled sunlight
Extended solar shading on the east side, north-facing bay windows for constant diffuse light without overheating.
Integrated landscaping
Local species planting, vegetated retention basins, landscaped terraces on the plateau's level changes.
Durable structure
Seismic and hurricane-resistant reinforced concrete, powder-coated aluminium joinery resistant to salt air, 10-year waterproofed flat roofs.
The plateau as a stage
The guiding principle of the Plateau Dominant is simple: every villa is an open box facing the landscape. The main glazed facades are oriented south-south-west to capture the lagoon-golf-horizon panorama.
The volumes play on the duality between local volcanic stone walls — opaque, protective — and the large sliding bay windows that open onto terraces and pools.
The sleeping areas, set back, benefit from natural cross-ventilation, while the double-height living rooms create a sense of space rare in Guadeloupean real estate.
