Cozumel House

Casa Cozumel is a mind-blowing beach house that boasts 38 metres of private beach frontage on the Caribbean island of Cozumel, situated off the coast of the Mexican state. The stunning residence sits on an expansive property that is densely packed with vegetation, providing the residents total privacy. Contained over two levels, the house connects by means of bridges and terraces to the exterior pool and beach areas. The design reflects a clear unity between the contemporary language and natural surroundings. The lower areas of the home share a social orientation toward the beachfront, while family rooms and glimmering pools provide a perfect setting for interaction between guests. The architects have contrasted the light palette of concrete and limestone with dark wood accents. The perfect combination.

Set beside a waterfall that feeds into a quiet creek, the home already possessed a cinematic setting. Givone amplified this by int...
