Smart apartment was conceived by Area-17 as a clever answer to all the issues revolving around the idea of dwelling: functionality, distribution, furniture design, lifestyle quality, and space optimization.
Area-17 designed three luxury showroom villas and three penthouses as a model for a residential complex developed by Arco Real Estate Group, in the Shui Wan area of Shenzhen, China.
Inspired by warm, bright colors and simple volumes of traditional rural architecture in the south of Italy, Area-17 designed a 130 square-meter private apartment in Salerno, just east of the splendid Amalfi Coast.
Villa Rita is a charming three story house in the historic downtown area of Cuenca, completely renovated by Area-17. The allure of the building remains intact thanks to a design in which the new and the old coexist in a harmonious and placid way.
This 250 sqm three-storey apartment belongs to an important Indian family. The owner was not satisfied by the original layout and asked Area-17 for a more comfortable and modern space, airy and bright.
Designed by Area-17 to make the most of the modest proportions, this urban interior has a cozy and nonchalant appeal. The almost industrial atmosphere is warmed up by thoughtfully placed oriental accents. Textures and neutral colors create dynamic interrelations among the clean surfaces of the walls, ceilings, and roof.
Area-17 transforms a typical rural dwelling in the Dolomites into a refined contemporary villa. Traditional Tyrolese materials build essential volumes, through a process of abstraction and synthesis of original shapes.
In one of the most prestigious towers on Chang an avenue, Area-17 has designed the residence of a famous Chinese businessman, owner of Redbull China. The 600 square-meter apartment is pure luxury from the inside out.
Traditional materials and topography inspires the concept for Vineyard’s Villas, three 250 square-meter dwellings designed by Area-17 in collaboration with Atelier Picchio in the hills surrounding Sierre, a beautiful Swiss town in the Canton of Valais.
Villa Jade is a showroom villa created by Area-17 as a model for a thirty-villa complex facing one of the beautiful lakes that surround Suzhou, a charming city in Southern China. The design draws inspiration from the peaceful beauty of the surrounding nature, incorporating comfortable and soothing environments.
