Nowdays Architecture Trends.
Modern architectural styling characterizes today’s homes in Marbella, featuring open-plan interiors, state-of-the-art kitchens, bathrooms, and home automation technology.

Factors to Consider:
Marbella’s real estate options have evolved into highly advanced and sophisticated properties offering unparalleled insulation and comfort. These properties have modern amenities like super-fast internet, gas fireplaces, outdoor back-lit bars and kitchens, heated pools, professional gyms, home spas and more.
Today Buyers preferences.
The property market constantly evolves, adopting new technologies, trends, and social attitudes. The latest home designs in Marbella reflect the impact of the Covid situation.
The current trend among buyers in Marbella is to seek properties that offer ample space and flexibility to personalize them according to their preferences, gardens, green areas, and spacious terraces. In addition, they are looking for rooms that can serve as offices, studios, and casual workspaces integrated into the home environment, reflecting the rise of remote work. While each person’s professional requirements and personal tastes influence these preferences, the overall trend is towards more adaptable and functional living spaces.
When Contemporary Design Meets Luxury
Marbella’s earliest properties were influenced by modern architecture, with villas built as far back as the 1950s and 1960s showcasing sleek white lines and single-storey dimensions that remain timeless today. While traditional Mediterranean styles with intricate decorative details became popular in the following years, white remained the preferred colour for most homes. However, the 1990s saw a shift towards earthy terracotta tones inspired by southern Moroccan architecture, introduced by renowned architect Melvin Villaroel and became widely adopted on the Costa del Sol.
The era of modern architecture in Marbella ended with the financial crisis, and after building activity resumed, a new futuristic ‘modern’ style emerged and has since dominated the past decade. This design revolution is characterized by sleek, whitewashed villas, townhouses, and apartments reminiscent of the early modernist movement, featuring large panoramic windows, open-plan interiors, and minimalist gardens. However, modern materials and the latest technology have been incorporated into the new designs.
Currently, new luxury projects are being launched in Marbella.
You would be mistaken to assume that the Covid-19 pandemic has deterred individuals from seeking property in Marbella. In actuality, sales have demonstrated remarkable resilience, as many individuals view the Costa del Sol as an ideal location for real estate investment and a delightful place to reside. The region offers excellent security, an enviable climate, and a high quality of life, all close to their home countries.
As the trend towards remote work continues to gain momentum and more individuals yearn to be surrounded by sunshine, expansive landscapes, and natural splendor, the decision is clear for many: Marbella, which boasts Europe’s most radiant coastline, is the destination of choice.
Marbella’s abundance of first-rate amenities and convenient international flight connections significantly contribute to its popularity. However, it’s not all positive news. In contrast to popular belief, there is a shortage of modern, newly-constructed homes in the most sought-after Marbella real estate sector. This applies to all properties, including apartments, villas, and luxury semi-detached homes. This shortage is prompting astute potential buyers to pursue their plans to purchase a property in Marbella immediately. Nonetheless, some exceptional new property developments in the Costa del Sol are launching, and we take pride in presenting you with the latest new homes for sale in Marbella.
New and contemporary developments in Marbella.
Many prospective property purchasers in this area seek contemporary residences with up-to-date designs, exceptional construction standards, advanced conveniences, and spacious, open-plan arrangements, all located in tranquil and secluded surroundings that are still conveniently situated near beaches, shopping, dining, and sports facilities, and schools.

How to renovate for a return on investment (ROI).
The current market demands high-quality villas in prime areas like frontline golf or beachfront locations. As a result, there is a growing trend for renovating existing villas, transforming them from classic Andalusian style into modern, stylish homes suitable for contemporary living. These investment properties often double their sales price and are quickly bought up, with many buyers willing to pay a premium for a spectacular home in a prestigious location. This trend has injected new life into exclusive neighborhoods such as Sierra Blanca, Nueva Andalucía, and the Golden Mile, where luxurious new villas and apartment complexes are in high demand.
Contemporary architecture that emphasizes natural light, sustainable design, and luxurious amenities such as water features, living walls, innovative home technology, home cinemas, game rooms, and infinity pools are just a few examples of the luxurious features that are in high demand to satisfy the discerning tastes of affluent buyers in the 21st century.
Marbella’s escalation of building material costs can be attributed to high inflation. Still, the exorbitant price increases are also a result of the scarce availability and high value of land for construction, coupled with soaring demand.
