A Private Island Retreat Defined by Timeless Design
Set against the turquoise waters and natural beauty of Harbour Island, this private residence was conceived as a seamless dialogue between architecture, nature, and the relaxed rhythm of island living. Designed by Peter Michael Oleck of Studio Oleck, the home embraces a philosophy rooted in authenticity, where natural materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape shape every aspect of the experience. Carefully selected Harbour furnishings play an integral role throughout the outdoor spaces, complementing the architecture with timeless design, refined comfort, and a seamless connection to the island setting.
From the beginning, the vision for the residence centered on creating spaces that feel both grounded and restorative. Limestone, warm wood finishes, woven textures, and handcrafted details work together to establish a sense of warmth and understated luxury. Rather than competing with the environment, the architecture was designed to celebrate it, framing views of the gardens, terraces, and ocean beyond while inviting natural light and sea breezes throughout the home.
A defining feature of the project is the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Expansive openings dissolve the boundaries between interior and exterior spaces, allowing the landscape to become an integral part of everyday life. Outdoor living areas function as natural extensions of the home, offering places to relax, gather, and reconnect with nature in an atmosphere that feels effortless and serene.
"For this project, the relationship between indoor and outdoor living was paramount. The home opens effortlessly to the gardens, terraces, and ocean beyond, allowing the landscape to become an integral part of daily life. Harbour was a natural choice for the exterior furnishings, as their commitment to craftsmanship, material integrity, and timeless design closely aligns with our own values." — Peter Michael Oleck
Poolside Living with Hayman
At the heart of the outdoor experience is a breathtaking infinity pool suspended between sky and sea, overlooking the crystal-clear waters beyond. Positioned around the pool, the Hayman Sun Lounges provide an inviting retreat for relaxation throughout the day.
A statement in simplicity with clean angles and modern styling, the Hayman collection brings effortless sophistication to outdoor living. The sun lounge features a low profile, hinged cushion that appears to float above its plinth base, creating a refined silhouette that feels both modern and welcoming.
Whether enjoying a quiet morning overlooking the ocean or unwinding as the sun sets across the water, the Hayman Sun Lounges provide the perfect place to relax, taking in sweeping views of the endless horizon while enhancing the sense of calm that defines the property.
Contemporary Comfort with Hamilton
Complementing the poolside setting and outdoor gathering spaces, the Hamilton Lounge Chairs offer a balance of sculptural design and everyday comfort.
Defined by clean lines and thoughtful detailing, the Hamilton collection pairs an extruded aluminum frame with tapered legs and contoured backrests that create a refined yet relaxed presence. Double-layered woven Olefin rope accents add depth and texture, while plush all-weather cushions provide exceptional comfort for long afternoons spent outdoors.
Every aspect of this Harbour Island residence was designed to celebrate its extraordinary setting. Natural materials, thoughtful detailing, and carefully curated furnishings come together to create an environment that feels timeless, welcoming, and effortlessly livable.
Our Hayman Sun Lounges and Hamilton Lounge Chairs play an integral role throughout the outdoor spaces, complementing the architecture with refined comfort and enduring craftsmanship. The result is a residence that embraces the beauty of island living while offering a lasting sense of relaxation, connection, and escape.
