Living room with a black veined stone media wall, linear fireplace and grey leather sofas in Timeless Union, designed by Ruba Tannous

Residential

Timeless Union

Black marble, indoor pool, hill-country panorama

THE CONCEPT

A hilltop residence that commits fully to a dark, cinematic palette — black veined marble, charcoal textiles, and blackened steel — then opens entire walls of glass to the Galilee landscape for relief. An indoor pool with black water sits beneath the living level, visible through a glass floor bridge.

The staircase in oak and steel threads between levels like a vertical gallery. Every room trades the warmth of walnut against the cool authority of black stone.

Signature Detail

A glass floor bridge at the upper level reveals the indoor pool's black water surface below — the moment you cross between bedrooms, you walk on water and sky simultaneously.
