Designing in response to the setting.
Building a home in Antigua starts with an inland area with a rural character, where contemporary design should retain calm proportions and a measured relationship with the landscape. Architecture cannot be only about appearance: it must manage sunlight, wind, privacy, orientation and the everyday use of outdoor space.
Our design response centres on simple volumes, courtyards, mineral finishes and passive bioclimatic measures. These elements are assessed alongside plot shape, access, setbacks and the planning parameters that apply in the municipality of Antigua.
Before fixing areas and finishes, we review the available documents and the actual plot conditions. In Antigua, as elsewhere in Fuerteventura, feasibility is plot-specific: an area page helps frame the project but does not replace technical and planning checks.
Types
Single-storey homes and villas
Delivery
Advanced shell / turnkey
Setting
centre of the island
From a plot to a buildable home.
The route begins with the location, plot references and the family’s goals. We then prepare an initial layout, compare delivery levels and build a coherent cost framework. After the checks, the concept becomes a design calibrated for Antigua.
Initial assessment
Needs, budget, plot and planning feasibility become the project’s starting point.
Design and estimate
We define the layout, style, performance, finishes and an increasingly accurate cost framework.
Approvals and build
The project is coordinated with technical teams and contractors through approvals, works and checks.
Handover
The home can be delivered as an advanced shell or completed and ready to move into.
Frequently asked questions about building in Antigua
Can the design be customised?
Yes. Layout, size, openings, materials and finishes are adapted to the plot, requirements and applicable planning framework.
Can a pool be included?
Yes, where the plot, planning parameters and technical conditions allow it. The pool, pergolas and landscaping are coordinated with the house.
Can I choose an advanced shell?
Yes. It is one of the two delivery options, alongside turnkey. The exact scope is set out in the project specification and estimate.
What determines time and cost?
They depend mainly on the plot, design, approvals, finish level and logistics. Reliable estimates require preliminary checks.
