Learn why VIRARQ SLP evolved into AURUS: a strategic rebrand...
At AURUS Arquitectura, we specialize in designing and managing luxury custom residences in premier Málaga hill communities such as Ojén and Mijas Pueblo. These zones offer elevated, serene landscapes between sea and mountain, with stunning views, refined architecture, lush gardens and private pools—minus the overt flashiness found in nearby overexposed coastal developments.
Our studio blends technical rigor, site sensitivity, and refined aesthetics to deliver exclusive high-end homes with architectural integrity. Here’s how we approach new luxury villas in Ojén and Mijas and why these locations have become top choices for those seeking quality, discretion, and lifestyle.
Ojén is a picturesque Andalusian mountain village at around 200–400 m altitude, offering panoramic views toward the Mediterranean and Sierra Blanca. It’s known for its authenticity, relaxed pace, and proximity to top golf clubs and natural parks. Mijas Pueblo, set slightly lower but still above sea level, combines white‑washed charm with expansive vistas toward the coast.
These inland zones avoid coastal overcrowding and commercialisation. They attract homeowners seeking privacy, elegant design, and exclusivity—away from tourist hotspots.
When working in Ojén’s La Mairena or hillside plots around Mijas, we emphasize:
· Optimal orientation for sea and mountain views.
· Integration with natural topography, avoiding heavy excavation.
· Landscape-sensitive building forms, terraces and pergolas.
We treat each plot as unique, designing each villa to respond to sunlight, prevailing winds, local microclimate and views.
We strive for an architectural identity that blends contemporary minimalism with local authenticity—white exteriors, clean lines, large windows—always ensuring harmony with the traditional Andalusian aesthetic. Our references include Scandinavian standards found in developments such as the La Sierra de Mijas villa project with high-quality finishes, private garden and pool for each unit.
Our luxury villas include:
· Private infinity pools and landscaped terraces.
· Energy‑efficient systems: geothermal or aerothermal heat pumps, underfloor heating, intelligent HVAC.
· Smart home integration, gated access, large basement garages & multipurpose spaces.
An example is the Mijas Luxury Village project offering villas between 340–394 m² built, with private pools, garage space for two vehicles, and high‑efficiency certification through aerothermal systems and good insulation standards.
We work with landowners to assess viewshed, terrain, access, and legal frameworks, crafting responsive design concepts tailored to hillside plots in Ojén or hillside areas around Mijas Pueblo.
Using BIM workflows, we create precise 3D architectural models that coordinate structure, MEP systems, roof terraces, and basement distribution. This ensures accurate budgets, clash‑free installations (especially valuable in hillside builds) and efficient timelines.
We specify premium materials: natural stone or micro‑cement floors, sleek kitchens, floor‑to‑ceiling glazing, pergolas in exotic wood or metal finishes, and though discreet, local ceramic tile roofs if requested.
Many developments in Mijas and Ojén pursue A or B Energy Certificates, with specifications like solar panels, solar shading, heat‑pump HVAC and high‑performance glazing. Some local high‑end examples include villa developments near El Soto golf offering sustainable builds starting at €995 k–1.5 M with customization options.
We ensure that every stage, from excavation on sloping terrain to pool commissioning, interior finishes and landscaping, meets quality standards and reflects the original design vision.
· In-depth experience with hillside luxury residences in the Malaga region.
· Expertise in sustainable villa design, aerothermal systems, passive climate control and smart-home implementation.
· A personalized, atelier-style approach: each project is unique and tailored.
· Seamless coordination of architecture, structure, interior design and landscaping.
If you are considering building a luxury villa in Ojén, La Mairena, or Mijas Pueblo, we would love to guide you through the process—from plot selection to turnkey delivery.
