PLUNKES





Private Villa Extension & Renovation



​We added a new pool with deck and canopy to this Barbadian villa, opening the internal living to the plunge pool area and really connecting the inside with the rear garden and new deck area.



Completed in June 2017, this renovation feature a 43'x8' pool with a plunge pool area where access steps and bench are located.

We decided to design our extension in a modern, contemporary, minimalist style to match the modern look of the house, although built in the 70's.

The Study and Master Bedroom open directly onto the new Pool Deck through hard wood doors with jalousies.

The Study, an enclosed room before, is now totally open both sides to the Pool Deck and to the Living, creating a visual and physical connection between interiors and exteriors.



"Mr. De Bortoli was selected for the renovation of our house which included the establishment of a large patio and a lap pool.
We were not only impressed by the quality and the creativity of the design but also with the care and professionalism in the follow up of work execution.
He paid attention to detail, worked tirelessly to manage the relationship between us and the contractor and to ensure that we got what we contracted for.
He was superbly responsive and was able to explain things so that we laymen could understand especially as it related to construction jargon. We believe he exceeded our expectations.
We have no reservations with recommending Mr. De Bortoli to anyone who is looking for a reliable and creative architect".
