Naomi's rich Russian man Vladimir Doronin marked her 41st birthday with this insanely OTT gift – a house in the shape of an Egyptian eye, on the private Turkish island, Isla Playa de Cleopatra.
The Eye of Horus is a fully sustainable house designed by Spanish architect Luis de Garrido, built on the Playa de Cleopatra Island in Turkey. The island is known for the exceptional quality of its sand, said to be different from other nearby beaches. Local legends say that Roman emperor Marc Antony imported the sand especially for Cleopatra herself, because she would not set foot on any land that wasn’t Egyptian.
An impressive project The house contains 25 bedrooms, 5 lounges and an indoor landscaped terrace which provides incredible views. However, Garrido claims that it was not too expensive considering its size, and encourages people to consider the idea of investing in a sustainable house as they are not as costly as they might think and such structures do not require further maintenance expenses like a regular home. Its well-studied bioclimatic design makes it completely self-sufficient.
The eye’s outline consists of photovoltaic panels which work to provide all the energy for the house. It supplies its own water as well, by harvesting rain and treating waste water through an on-site biological system.
EDIT
If my memory serves me correctly.
I believe that Naomi was on the flight logs to JEs island

Good find. I see lots of circular reporting but no real meat beyond around 2012. The island is a tourist spot too so I think we’d see a glimpse of it. The island is rumored to be an old hangout of Cleopatra VII and Julius Caesar.
I went to the architects website.

If they didn’t build it they sure did plan it. Maybe it never came to fruition, but the stuff he’s got on here is definitely interesting. This architect also has built a golden pyramid home.
Edit: found the reason. In 2013 Naomi and the Billionaire broke up. Jesus I dove deep in that rabbit hole.
