Immersed in the azure embrace of the Aegean Sea, time seems to slow down. The sunlight casts dappled shadows on the stone wall, and a gentle breeze floats, bringing a salty, damp and free atmosphere. Here, nature is not the backdrop of a residence but the continuation of life. Designed by Sanayi313 Studio, Hebil Residence, with stone as its bone, light as its muscle and the sea as its soul, rests quietly on the coastline in the northern part of the Bodrum Peninsula, composing a poem about the coexistence of life, architecture and nature.

Hebil Residence is a modern summer villa immersed in magnificent landscapes. It is built on a slope and unfolds along the three-story naturally undulating terrain. The residence is divided into three main areas: the main residence, the independent hotel and the pier. The hotel is close to the pier and separated from the main building by the swimming pool area and the landscape area. It is located on a lower floor.

Sanayi313 Studio did not use the traditional white coating. Instead, it chose the local natural stone Hekimkoy as the skin of the building facade. This texture, as if carved out of the earth, infuses the residence with an original sense of weightiness and a unique local character, while extending to the floor of the swimming pool area, achieving a unity in both visual and tactile perception.

The living floor is divided into three main areas through an open layout, including a dining room and two living room areas with different atmospheres, one of which features a stone fireplace as the visual center. There is also a more private activity room, which is independent but maintains the continuity of the space through transparent glass. The painted walls, rattan weaving elements and the overall tone create a pure and warm living scene.

The interior mostly uses rattan weaving, linen and warm old wood as the main materials. The color tone is low-key and restrained, aiming to create a blank background for the family's art collection, allowing light and shadow to flow freely among the textures of the materials. The dimming system, on the other hand, controls the indoor and outdoor environments, allowing the light to dance with the materials. At different times, it brings about different mood changes.

The internal circulation route unfolds around a sculptural spiral staircase, with a striking curved outline that makes it seem to float in an open area. Its inner side is covered with solid wood and the outer side is decorated with paint, connecting the upper and lower floors and becoming an important visual node. The staircase brings abundant natural light into the room through the skylight above and generates even illumination among the floors.

The bedroom floor continues the overall simple and natural vocabulary. The linen headboard in the master bedroom is integrally formed with the night cabinet, creating a wraparound space. The walk-in closet connects the bedroom and the ensuite bathroom, which is delicate and full of ritual. The bedrooms on the upper floors feature custom wood veneer details, making the material language more diverse. Outside each bedroom window, there is a natural view. Life and nature interweave with each other.
