Some homes are built for the moment. Others are built for life.

Perched above the crystalline waters of Gordon’s Bay, Emerald Sound is a home designed not to follow trends, but to stand the test of time - both in material and intent. Created as the owner’s forever home, every element of its design has been meticulously considered, materials selected for longevity and built without compromise.

As a design industry professional, the owner approached this project with an unrelenting focus on quality. Collaborating with Luigi Roselli architects and interior design studio, Atelier Alwill, the vision was clear: to create a luxurious residence that would endure, evolve, and enrich daily life.

A Threshold Between Land & Sea

The home’s architectural journey begins with an Axolotl door featuring the Doric Design. A fluted surface design echoing a minimal, modern take on the ripples of the ocean beyond. Finished in an aged Bronze, the portal into the home commands attention in the changing light. 

Stepping inside, Axolotl’s Linen Glass graces the main and butler’s kitchen as an ethereal sliding partition. Made to order from bronze tinted glass with 3D Embossed Linen texture and framed in walnut timber, the glass filters light with a soft textured diffusion, balancing privacy and openness in equal measure.

Materiality as a Legacy

In a location as exposed as Gordon’s Bay, material selection is critical. Every finish in Emerald Sound was chosen not only for its aesthetic merit but for its ability to withstand the coastal climate - where salt, wind, and sun are constant forces.

Axolotl’s handcrafted metal and glass materials have met the brief.

True luxury is in the details

From the architecture to the interiors, this is a home shaped by a commitment to bespoke craftsmanship - where surfaces are not off-the-shelf but handmade, textured, and finished with an artisan’s touch. 

In this way, Emerald Sound is more than just a residence; it is a reflection of its owner’s deep appreciation for design as a lived experience.
