Atrium House : Vues Panoramiques à 360° Où La Canopée De La Forêt Rencontre L'océan

Atrium House is a 756 m² architectural residence in Las Huacas, Nosara, Guanacaste, Costa Rica, designed by Benjamin Saxe of Studio Saxe around 360° panoramic views encompassing the Pacific Ocean and surrounding forest canopy. Set high along the ridge line above Playa Guiones, the home combines multi level indoor and outdoor living, a central passive cooling atrium, private pool, custom interiors, and preserved mature trees within a distinctive hillside design. Rather than imposing a conventional structure on its setting, Atrium House was integrated into the hilltop and positioned around mature trees to preserve the existing canopy. The architecture responds directly to the landscape, creating a close relationship between the residence, tropical vegetation, and broad ocean outlooks. At the center is the namesake atrium, a dramatic vertical space designed to serve both architectural and practical purposes. Ocean breezes are drawn upward through the structure, naturally regulating temperature and reducing energy dependency. This passive approach complements the home’s open living spaces and connection to the outdoors. The upper level social area floats above the tree line, opening the residence to sunset views across the Pacific and Playa Guiones while maintaining privacy. An open floor plan is complemented by custom furniture, tailored millwork, and curated art pieces. On the ground level, a second social space connects directly with the private pool, built in outdoor lounge, BBQ area, and surrounding tropical greenery. Atrium House sits alongside a local wildlife corridor, bringing sightings of howler monkeys, toucans, and native birds into the everyday experience of the property. Playa Guiones and the downtown area are approximately 3 to 4 kilometers away, with a drive of about five minutes. Defined by a sophisticated palette of natural stone, rich wood, custom millwork, and carefully curated finishes, Atrium House balances warmth and understated glamour with the relaxed elegance of coastal living. Each material has been deliberately selected to elevate the architectural experience and, as with any refined coastal residence, benefits from attentive care to preserve its beauty and character over time. Atrium House is offered turnkey and can serve as either a private estate or an income generating property within the Nosara luxury market, with private viewings arranged by appointment.
