Simzer Kaya Architects has been recognized with a Luxury Lifestyle Awards in the category of Best Luxury Villa Architecture for its outstanding work on the R&F Luxury Villa in Cyprus. This award highlights the firm’s expertise in creating sophisticated residential spaces that embrace modern design, functionality, and environmental awareness.

The R&F Luxury Villa was designed to fully integrate with its stunning surroundings, offering residents uninterrupted views of both the Mediterranean Sea and the Kyrenia mountains. The architectural concept prioritizes open spaces, natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, all while maintaining privacy and security. The choice of a steel-frame structure allows for expansive layouts with minimal structural interruptions, enabling large glass facades that enhance the connection between the home and its landscape. Given its location in an earthquake-prone zone, steel construction was also chosen for its durability and safety.

Commenting on the achievement, Alexander Chetchikov, President of the World Luxury Chamber of Commerce, praised the firm’s innovation and craftsmanship: “Simzer Kaya Architects has demonstrated exceptional skill in designing a residence that not only respects the beauty of its surroundings but also redefines contemporary luxury living. The R&F Luxury Villa is a remarkable example of how modern design can coexist with environmental consciousness, making it a well-deserving winner of this award.”

Functionality and comfort were central to the villa’s design. The open-plan living, kitchen, and dining areas create a fluid living experience, while three en-suite bedrooms offer privacy and relaxation. A thoughtfully designed guest wing provides independent access, allowing flexibility for hosting visitors while maintaining a connection to the main house. The basement level features a two-car garage and additional storage, ensuring both practicality and efficient space utilization.

Outdoor living is a key element of the villa’s appeal. A private garden, pool area, and dedicated entertainment spaces—including a BBQ area and sunbathing terraces—are positioned to maximize both privacy and panoramic views. The architectural massing of the villa also plays a crucial role in zoning, ensuring that outdoor spaces feel both expansive and intimate.

Sustainability was an important consideration throughout the project. The steel-frame structure is an environmentally conscious choice due to its recyclability and reduced construction waste. Large glass openings optimize daylight, reducing reliance on artificial lighting, while the home’s layout enhances natural ventilation, lowering energy consumption. These sustainable design elements contribute to a residence that is as responsible as it is visually striking.

With this recognition from Luxury Lifestyle Awards, Simzer Kaya Architects continues to establish itself as a leader in contemporary architecture, delivering projects that balance bold innovation with structural integrity and environmental responsibility.
