ZARMA

ZARMA is an earthy architectural home that distills the essence of modern living into a refined, architectural form. Designed by Allan Amores of Amores Design and delivered by BARLOW, the home embraces natural light, spatial clarity, and raw material beauty. Anchored by a central courtyard and resort sized swimming pool, the layout invites a seamless flow between indoors and out — allowing the home to breathe with its surroundings. From the 3.6-metre frameless glass pivot door to the garden-framed living spaces, every element is composed with intention. The material palette is unapologetically natural: hand-made Japanese tiles, travertine, timber, and softly polished concrete combine to create warmth and restraint in equal measure. These tactile elements are balanced by crisp architectural lines and soft curves that echo throughout the joinery, lighting, and spatial detailing. ZARMA’s ground floor includes an executive office, guest suite, and a sun-drenched atrium garden, while the open-plan living area extends out to an alfresco entertaining zone complete with built-in barbecue, bar fridge, and a beer + cocktail tap. Upstairs, the master suite captures sweeping city skyline and water views, anchored by a bespoke bedhead, walk-in robe, and minimalist ensuite — a private retreat elevated by light and proportion. ZARMA is a home of balance — bold yet calm, sculptural yet grounded. It embodies the BARLOW approach to design: architecture led, emotionally driven, and made to endure.
