dream city villa

Dream City Villa is a large-scale private residential project located in Dream City, Erbil, with an area of approximately 1,200 m². Completed in 2022, the project focused on the exterior redesign of the residence, transforming its architectural identity into a contemporary and sophisticated modern villa. The redesign introduces a clean composition of geometric volumes, balanced proportions, expansive glazing, and a carefully selected palette of stone, wood, dark architectural elements, and white surfaces. Design Concept The design was developed around a contemporary composition of intersecting architectural volumes, creating a strong and elegant façade through proportion, material contrast, depth, and shadow. Dark stone establishes the central architectural identity of the façade, while warm wood elements provide contrast and introduce a natural character. White surfaces create balance and allow the darker materials to become strong visual accents. Large glazed openings strengthen the relationship between the interior and exterior while bringing natural daylight deep into the residence. The overall architectural language is minimal, luxurious, warm, and contemporary, creating a distinctive residential identity within Dream City.

Primary Materials: Dark natural stone, warm wood cladding, white architectural plaster, glass, and black metal.
Color Palette: Warm white, charcoal/dark grey, natural brown wood, and black.
Landscape: The landscape integrates mature trees, hedges, and layered planting to soften the contemporary architecture and provide privacy along the street frontage.
