Sa Pedrera

Sa Pedrera

Formentera, Spain

"The stone, the light and the silence were already there. Our task was to learn not to disturb them"

Sa Pedrera is a project built on honesty. Situated just a short distance from the best beaches of Ses Salines Natural Park, the hotel is conceived as an intimate retreat where the interior design does not compete with the Formentera landscape, but rather extends it. Local stone and latticed screens are the central devices of the intervention: they filter the light, create shifting plays of shadow throughout the day and envelop the spaces in a serenity that is felt from the very first step. Simplicity as method. Silence as result.

The swimming pool acts as a central محور between the two suite blocks, and all the rooms open onto this central part of the property, creating a fluid layout that encourages independence and privacy. The careful orientation of each suite and the systems for modulating light and ventilation allow each guest to inhabit the space at their own pace. The project does not impose an experience: it suggests one.

Key Spaces

Suites

Spacious and open, designed for restful comfort without compromise. Pure lines, local materials and a direct connection with the outdoors define spaces that convey genuine calm from the very first moment.


Communal areas and pool

Water as the compositional centre. The outdoor pool structures the whole and articulates the relationship between the blocks, creating a shared space that feels intimate and personal.


Spa and well-being

A spacious, light-filled area devoted to well-being, with jacuzzi, sauna, hammam and cold-water areas, designed with the same restrained, material language as the rest of the project. Wellness as a natural extension of the experience, not an add-on.

Details

Colour palette

The palette sits within beige, off-whites and soft neutrals: basic tones chosen to accompany the space without imposing themselves, in dialogue with the materials of the place and the particular light of Formentera.

Materials and textures

Local stone as the protagonist, lattice screens as a poetic device. Honest materials that do not need to be explained because the body already recognises them.

Furniture

With pure lines and made to the exact dimensions of the project. Delicate pieces that accompany rest without interfering with it.

Lighting

The lattice screens do the work during the day: filtering, modulating, creating. Artificial lighting takes over discreetly at dusk, respecting the atmosphere that the architecture has already created.
