Nestled on Southern Italy hills, this apartment is designed by Area-17 as a seamless space alternating opaque and transparent volumes, flooded by natural light. The idea of connectivity shapes a new interiors’ layout: the minimalistic cube of the kitchen opens on the dining and living area. The result is a refined yet casual environment, tailored on the family social life’s routine.
Area-17 has designed and realised a whole new interior concept for this 400 sqm, 4 stories, high-end residential property owned by a Chinese Fine Arts collector in Sha Tin Hong Kong.
Inside Greenhills Villa, a balanced mix of classical and modern style effortlessly brings to life a feeling of old European sophistication, made of refined details and precious materials. In a space of 600 square meters spread over 4 floors, Area-17 has designed a residence that is truly a "home" for the family who lives in it, where representative spaces alternate with spaces for the family following the common thread of an airy central staircase that connects the different levels with their designated functions.
Area-17 was tasked with the design of Jardines Solano, one of the most desirable residential areas in Cuenca, Ecuador. The project consists of two eight-story towers with forty-two units each, surrounded by a beautiful 2'000 square meter private park.
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.
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.
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.
