Villa Geneve: The art of living in La Zagaleta

In the heart of La Zagaleta, one of the most exclusive residential estates in Europe, rises Villa Geneve, a masterpiece designed by Manuel Ruiz Moriche, co-founder and creative director of ARK Architects.

A villa where bioarchitecture, natural beauty, and contemporary design converge to create a home in perfect balance with its surroundings.

Villa Geneve seamlessly combines architecture and interior design: its spaces have been furnished with pieces from Flexform and the exclusive ARK Collection, reflecting timeless design, real comfort, and the highest quality materials. Every detail has been carefully considered to complement natural light, the surrounding landscape, and everyday living, creating a home where style, functionality, and personality coexist in perfect harmony.

 

A masterpiece that breathes nature

With its clean, modern lines, Villa Geneve blends organically into the landscape of La Zagaleta. Surrounded by lush gardens and open views of the Mediterranean Sea, Africa, and the Benahavís mountains, the villa celebrates the connection between interior and exterior, between human and nature.

The project is guided by the principles of bioarchitecture — ARK’s philosophy of designing sustainable spaces in which natural light, noble materials, and orientation work together to enhance the wellbeing of those who inhabit them.

 

 

Spaces made to feel

Every corner of Villa Geneve has been crafted to offer serenity and spaciousness. Large windows frame the beauty of the environment, while the infinity pool and private gardens invite relaxation and contemplation.
Inside, natural materials — wood, stone, light — merge with state-of-the-art technology to deliver an experience of absolute comfort.

The spa area, with a heated indoor pool, sauna and Turkish bath, together with its private wine cellar, creates an intimate universe where wellbeing becomes an art form.

The ARK vision

As Manuel Ruiz Moriche, co-founder and creative director of ARK Architects, explains:

 

“In every project, we seek to connect nature, space, light and personal lifestyle to create sustainable homes. Architecture should move you — but it should also take care of you.”

 

Villa Geneve embodies this vision: a home where silence, light and matter come together to create more than a residence — a living experience in the heart of La Zagaleta.
