Punta Cana House / Mareines Arquitetura + Patalano Arquitetura

August 27, 2023 Andreas Luco 0

Signed by the Mareines Arquitetura office, Casa Punta Cana is contemporary and open to the Caribbean landscape. Located in the Dominican Republic, its structure was designed to question the concepts of “inside” and “outside.” The clients’ briefing, an American family that insisted on participating in all stages of the project, was for a single-story house, comfortable, large, and with several equally sized rooms. The organic structure, completely open to the beach and street, brings a greater incidence of natural light and ventilation to the “breeze house,” as it is called by the office. With unconventional and parallel architectural lines, the project was designed in terms of sustainability and with technological differentials not yet used in the country. In addition, except for one chair, all the decoration and furniture are from Brazilian designers, for whom the clients are passionate, and in discreet colors. In the north block, there are six independent suites, each with its own view and gardens, and the south block houses the dining room, bar, kitchen, game room, gym, and all the services of the house. In the center, there is a “family room,” planned to be a meeting point for family members who live in different countries and guests.

Framed Allure House / EAA-Emre Arolat Architecture

August 27, 2023 Andreas Luco 0

Palm Island in Dubai is characterized by a series of villas that are next to each other but which do not look alike nor even try to relate to each other. One of the important aspects of the design was to close the building volume at the sides, preventing any physical or visual relationship with neighboring sites and extending the building toward the sea as well as to the garden at the back.
