From ground-breaking to handover: Crafting a bespoke beach-inspired sanctuary in 180 days.
A Masterclass in Turnkey Architectural Execution
Truly exceptional homes are built from the ground up. For this project in Ras Al Khaimah, Tünde Hendricks Design undertook a comprehensive demolish-and-rebuild mandate. In just six months, we transformed a dated structure into a bespoke family retreat that bridges the gap between the serenity of the golf course and the proximity of the Arabian Gulf.
Inspired by “Seaside Serenity,” the design language avoids coastal clichés. Instead, it utilises a sophisticated palette of crisp whites, sandy ochres, and organic textures to create an airy, biophilic environment that breathes with the coastal breeze.

- Property Type: Custom New-Build Residential Villa.
- Scope: Total Demolition, Architectural Rebuild, Interior Design, & Landscape Engineering.

Architectural & Interior Highlights
The Open-Plan Heart: Social Architecture
The ground floor was engineered for effortless flow. By integrating expansive sliding glass systems, we dissolved the boundaries between the kitchen, dining, and lounge areas. This configuration maximises natural light and ensures the interior remains connected to the outdoor landscape at all times.
The Culinary Hub: Precision Meets Warmth
The kitchen serves as a masterclass in functional elegance. Featuring high-end integrated appliances and sleek, handle-less cabinetry, the central island was designed as a social anchor for the home; perfect for both intimate family mornings and large-scale entertaining.
The Exterior Oasis: Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living
We treated the exterior as a primary living room. The custom-designed pool serves as the villa’s focal point, framed by sun-drenched terraces and modern landscaping. Every architectural line was extended outdoors to create a cohesive, sophisticated sanctuary.
