An interview with John Candia Massey
Here our CEO & founder describes why Besuto Homes is so different in their approach to the development of luxury homes in Mallorca.
Besuto Homes is an innovative property investment and development company setting new standards in the renovation of existing heritage buildings in Palma. We work with a discerning list of global clientele who are looking for extraordinary homes in Mallorca.
Here our CEO & founder describes why Besuto Homes is so different in their approach to the development of luxury homes in Mallorca.
John first started developing luxury homes in 2003. Originally concentrating on frontline properties on the South West of the island, today his focus is increasingly urban, more specifically, redeveloping unique houses in the highly sought after neighbourhoods of Palma.
In contrast to his beginnings, building new homes, ‘this new path is more challenging but equally more rewarding as each project is totally unique’. Given each property needs its own bespoke solution, John has made a habit of reaching out to the best in the field of design with the aim to give them carte blanche so that no compromises are made and therefore what drives the project is the design which invariably is not the easiest route.
Lloyd is our Chairman and Founder. He has been involved in all aspects of property in both residential and commercial projects, from origination to planning and development for over 40 years.
The balearic islands are truly special and for Besuto Homes to provide high quality Urban properties gives that mix of holiday feel with true universal living
Ignacio is an outstanding architect with over thirty years experience. He possesses a flawless portfolio of work across the island of Mallorca and has also designed projects in Barcelona, Madrid and Budapest amongst others.
Ignacio delivers the highest standards in architectural design solutions, paying particular attention to sustainability and bespoke energy solutions such as thermal and acoustic isolation and works in context to the landscape.
The owners that Ignacio designs for often prefer to keep their privacy and some of his most memorable projects have included a cutting-edge property for a renowned sculptor in the Mallorcan countryside, a stunning contemporary style property on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean sea and a bespoke family home on the island of Formentor. Each project is the result of close collaboration with his clients to deliver homes that are bespoke to their needs and aspirations. Ignacio believes that architecture holds the possibility of transforming day to-day lives, so by taking advantage of the light and the climate of Majorca is something of key importance to his designs.
Arianna has been involved in the creative industry for over 30 years from Fashion to Fabric and Furniture. Her interior design offerings are in Mallorca, Ibizia, London and Paris delivering exceptional high standard homes.
