Located on the Papagayo peninsula of Costa Rica, the spectacular Indios Desnudos residence enjoys the luxury of a breathtakingly beautiful location situated on a pedestal lot overlooking the sea, surrounded by lush tropical forest on every side. Residents can enjoy this spectacular view from almost any location within the home thanks to an open indoor/outdoor layout, or can step out to one of the well-placed pools or observation balconies for a fully immersive experience. But this home offers design fans more than destination envy – the interior decor and furniture feature a cool mid century vibe to set off their ultra-modern architectural setting.

This amazing home is the work of Canas Arquitectos, a firm that focuses on supporting each resident’s way of life through sustainable design. Here, it’s easy to see this philosophy in action even at first glance – the architecture itself provides several different ways to enjoy its environment. Elevated volumes shade the patios below, large sliding walls allow the breeze to penetrate and cool the interior, and a huge interior social hub offers plenty of space to entertain guests.

Mid century furniture stands out as sculptural individual pieces that don’t distract from the view – in fact, they sometimes complement it, like the orange and blue tones against the sunset. The featured Womb chair is a 1948 design by Eero Saarinen.

Living, dining, and kitchen areas group together as a central hub, ideal for entertaining. Huge plate windows slide away to remove any boundary from the interior and the vast patios and pools just outside.

Private spaces like bedrooms and offices occupy the upstairs level of the home. The exposed walkways still allow a constant visual connection with the coastal landscape.

While the decks are great, the infinity pools offer another unique way to connect with the nature that surrounds. Without visible edges, it’s like a perfect mirror of the sky.
