New villas in Mougins: three contemporary masterpieces by Olivier Zahra

In the heart of Mougins, an iconic village of the French Riviera where art and light converge, a new private estate is poised to redefine the rules of contemporary architecture. Comprising three exceptional villas :Villa Maréna, Villa Célestia and Villa Soléna, this project embodies the perfect harmony of innovation, elegance and respect for Mediterranean heritage.

Sustainably built to the highest standards

These villas have been conceived in full compliance with RE2020 environmental standards and the most exacting construction benchmarks, blending energy efficiency, durability and comfort. Every detail has been meticulously designed to provide a healthy, luminous living environment, harmoniously integrated into its surroundings, while ensuring safety and longevity. Emphasis has been placed on blending seamlessly with the Mediterranean landscape, optimising natural light and employing premium materials, a true reflection of a responsible and sustainable approach to luxury property, perfectly aligned with the spirit of the Côte d’Azur.

Design and comfort: the art of living on the French Riviera

The interiors, thoughtfully crafted down to the smallest detail, reflect a vision of understated yet functional luxury. Each space features double-glazed aluminium windows, motorised shutters, and high-end finishes, including:

- Listone Giordano oak flooring

- Marazzi tiling

- Veneta Cucine kitchens

Villa Célestia stands out with its electric lift, Villa Maréna boasts a cascading infinity pool, and Villa Soléna offers timeless design and expansive wooden terraces. Each property offers between 233 and 306 m² of living space, with 4 to 5 bedrooms, landscaped gardens and private pools, set within a sun-drenched natural environment.

Architecture by Olivier Zahra

An internationally trained architect from Nice, Olivier Zahra brings a narrative vision to architecture. Educated in Buenos Aires and Brussels and now partner at ACA Architectes in Nice, he marries European precision with South American sensibility, where light and fluidity guide every design.

His Mougins villas are defined by:

- Glass facades opening onto the landscape

- Harmonious volumes following the natural topography

- Biophilic elements integrating nature into daily life

- Passive comfort systems promoting sustainability

Each home is conceived as a contemporary bastide, where stone, glass and metal engage in dialogue with centuries-old olive trees.

Living in Mougins: art, nature and excellence

Perched above Cannes, Mougins is one of the French Riviera’s most sought-after addresses.
