Villa Sow is dream home, built in 2011 for a Senegalese businessman and his family. Located in Dakar, Senegal, this contemporary home is designed by famous residential architects SAOTA (Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects). 
The house is built on a cliffside overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the site of an old World War Two bunker.

"The ground floor of the house, designed to facilitate seamless indoor and outdoor living and entertainment, is arranged in an L shape around the pool, the pool terrace and the garden. The formal Living and Dining spaces cantilever over the cliff and hang over the Atlantic Ocean enjoying panoramic sea views as well as views back to the house.

The Kitchen made up of a so called ‘American’ or open kitchen and a separate traditional kitchen as well as the garage  and staff facilities run along the east west axis and along the northern side of the boundary. From the Entrance one moves past the sculptural circular stair to the Entertainment Room and the double volume Family Lounge which connects up with a floating stair to the upper level Pyjama Lounge. The Main and the two children’s bedrooms are placed on this upper level."
