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.
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.
