MUSE DESIGN AWARDS 2025
AWARDS 2025
We are proud to announce that our project “The Franciscana Hotel”, presented in the Muse Design Awards 2025, has been rewarded Design of the Year as a Platinum Winner in Hospitality Architectural Design!
The project is born from the interpretation of the arch as the main elemento of colonial architecture in Valladolid and how this arch creates a sequence of spaces and plays of light and shadow. The projects’s location in a very natural environment allows us to incorporate nature into the Project, creating a central plaza around the jungle, so that the rooms are constantly facing the jungle and the plaza itself participates in that nature.

Let's Twist Again - The New Global Icon From Dubai!

Dubai, U.A.E
LET’S TWIST AGAIN – THE NEW GLOBAL ICON FROM DUBAI
A silhouette that twists toward the future. A project where architecture becomes living sculpture.
Twisted Towers, by DNA Barcelona — two towers that redefine the Dubai skyline with a progressive 90° rotation from base to top.
Two towers. One gesture. Infinite visual power.
Tower 1: 90 floors / 137 apartments
Tower 2: 70 floors / 107 apartments
Total built area: 54,203 m²
A vertical symphony of luxury, design, and movement.
Each floor rotates with millimetric precision, generating a fluid dynamic that transforms every space into a unique experience. The twist is not just form — it’s spatial strategy, light, orientation, and perspective.
Glass and titanium façade
— One side opens to the horizon with expansive terraces
— The other, clad in titanium, reflects light and enhances the twisting silhouette in the urban skyline
Integrated sustainability
Photovoltaic panels, seamlessly embedded in the envelope, generate much of the building’s energy, leveraging Dubai’s year-round sun. A self-sufficient proposal committed to its environment.
High-end exclusive residences
Flexible layouts for hotel or office use
An investment designed for the future of luxury in the Middle East
Twisted Towers is more than a real estate project.
It is an iconic work that marks a new era.
Dubai — where luxury meets vision.

We are proud to announce that our project “Hotel TOH, Holistic Comunity, Tulum”, presented in the Global Architecture Design Awards 2024, has been rewarded with Gold Award of Green Architecture!
A new concept of a holistic boutique Hotel TOH seamlessly integrated with nature, focused on body-mind-soul harmony, seeking a balance between architecture and the surrounding environment. The essence and inspiration drawn from the Toh bird, guided by its shapes, feathers, and radial flight, have led us to design a unique form for the hotel to embrace the terrain, providing unparalleled panoramic views of the lagoon and a central distribution like no other.

Valladolid, Mexico
The Franciscana Hotel project located in the city of Valladolid, a historic and colonial city on the Yucatán Peninsula and also designated as a Pueblo Mágico, has given DNA an apportunity to explore a different approach to the projects we have underway.
The project is born from the interpretation of the arch as the main elemento of colonial architecture in Valladolid and how this arch creates a sequence of spaces and plays of light and shadow. The projects’s location in a very natural environment allows us to incorporate nature into the Project, creating a central plaza around the jungle, so that the rooms are constantly facing the jungle and the plaza itself participates in that nature.
The location of this hotel, which is a 100 room hotel in the center and heart of Valladolid under the IHG Brand, a very important hotel group that will créate its first brand called Vignette Collection in Central America, gave us the opportunity to create a block concept with a central plaza. In this plaza, a whole system of gastronomy, art, culture, and shopping is created becoming a hub and catalyst for the city itself, where not only the hotel’s own guests but also the city’s residents can enjoy this new plaza that the hotel brings to Valladolid.
The same happens on the rooftop, where a leisure area is created with this infinity pool that frames the city of Valladolid, its plazas, and churches through the arches of the facade.
