ZARMA - A Modern Masterpiece
A Modern Masterpiece by Amores Design
This month, we’re highlighting ZARMA, a stunning residence that exemplifies the pinnacle of bespoke design. Architecturally envisioned by Amores Design, ZARMA is a personal sanctuary brought to life through the collaboration of Allan Amores and the BARLOW Building team, who are also the homeowners. Studio Enti’s lighting was thoughtfully included throughout the residence, adding warmth and sophistication to the carefully curated interiors. The interplay of light and our handcrafted porcelain fixtures enhances this truly unique home's serene, luxurious atmosphere.

The centrepiece of ZARMA is the swimming pool and surrounding tranquil garden. Upon entering through the 3.6-meter frameless glass pivot door, visitors are immediately captivated by the spacious and open interior. The courtyard was thoughtfully designed to create a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas, allowing the breeze from the south to flow through the house. The alfresco living space is perfect for entertaining guests. Equipped with a built-in barbecue and fully equipped bar that offers a comfortable outdoor dining experience.
The ground-floor bathroom features a luxuriously curved shower clad in handmade Japanese tiles, softly illuminated by a pair of EOS Wall Lights. Next to the vanity, a cluster of Crescent Sconce lights adds a layer of ambient lighting, enhancing the serene atmosphere.
The ground floor includes a bedroom, an executive office, and a serene atrium garden. Upstairs, the master suite offers breathtaking city skyline and water views, with a bespoke bedhead, walk-in wardrobe, and minimalist ensuite. A striking cluster of three Orb Lights in varying sizes is suspended at the top of the staircase, visible from the entry, One challenge Allan Amores faced was the home’s location in a flood zone, which required raising the structure one meter above ground. To maintain indoor-outdoor flow, the pool and central courtyard were designed at the same level as the interior, creating a seamless connection between spaces.
ZARMA is more than just a house; it’s a personal sanctuary that reflects the owners’ unique tastes and aspirations. Thoughtful design, premium materials, and exceptional craftsmanship—including Studio Enti’s lighting—make it a true masterpiece of modern living.
“It's like a perfectly played symphony by a philharmonic orchestra, a breathtaking and inspiring work of art”
