About Villa Antioquia Kuća

Vila Antioquia je privatna rezidencija smještena u Cap Cani, Punta Cana, Dominikanska Republika. Kuća obuhvata 1130 kvadratnih metara izgrađene površine na parceli od 2630 kvadratnih metara. Dizajn stvara unutrašnje prostore koji su fizički i vizualno prožeti sa vanjskim područjima lokacije. Lokalni klimatski uslovi uticali su na korištenje prirodne ventilacije. Izražena konzolna konstrukcija na fasadi formira ulazni prag. Domaći klesani kamen, drvene obloge i mramorne pločice velikog formata oblikuju materijalnu paletu.
