AQUA Residences by DNA arrives on the Costa Blanca as a new icon of contemporary seafront architecture, where design, wellness, and Mediterranean lifestyle merge into a truly unique residential experience.

Inspired by luxury yachting and the purity of white Mediterranean architecture, the project is conceived as a superyacht anchored on the shores of the Mediterranean — elegant, fluid, and timeless. Every line, every volume, and every space has been designed to engage in dialogue with the sea, the light, and the horizon.

The development comprises 163 carefully designed residences — spacious, light-filled homes with expansive terraces open to the seascape. The architecture prioritizes a sensory connection with the surroundings, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor living to fully embrace the climate, sea breeze, and natural light throughout the year.

Two underground parking levels with 330 spaces ensure maximum comfort and privacy for both residents and visitors.

AQUA redefines the concept of well-being through a holistic Wellness Clinic, combining regenerative medicine, advanced stem cell treatments, next-generation technological diagnostics, specialized nutrition, and personalized longevity and integrative health programs.

The wellness spa, featuring amenities comparable to a five-star luxury hotel, is conceived as a sensory sanctuary where body, mind, and environment exist in perfect balance.

The concept is complemented by first-class restaurants dedicated to Mediterranean culinary culture, designed as vibrant meeting spaces overlooking the sea. Honest cuisine, local produce, and a dining experience that celebrates the refined and unhurried rhythm of Mediterranean living.

AQUA also integrates conference and convention facilities, designed to host cultural, corporate, and social events, reinforcing its identity as an active and cosmopolitan destination.

At the top of the building, an exclusive rooftop becomes the social heart of the project. Expansive panoramic pools, lounge areas, and contemplative spaces transform the horizon into a daily experience, where sky and sea merge into a singular architectural gesture.

Designed by DNA Barcelona Architects, AQUA is a statement of intent: iconic architecture, avant-garde identity, and profound respect for Mediterranean cultural heritage. A project conceived to endure — not only to be inhabited, but to be truly lived.

AQUA Residences by DNA is not just a place to live.
It is a destination.
It is wellness.
It is the Mediterranean in its purest form.

Atzaró Playa del Carmen Residences represents the encounter between Mediterranean luxury and the vibrant spirit of the Mexican Caribbean. Designed by the prestigious studio DNA Barcelona Architects, in collaboration with Atzaró Group and the local firm OLBLACK Arquitectos, the project is conceived as a sanctuary where architecture, nature, and lifestyle converge in perfect harmony.

Inspired by Ibiza’s philosophy of “natural luxury,” the design embraces nautical lines and the essence of Playa del Carmen’s coastal landscape to create a timeless and unique identity.

The development comprises 100 exclusive residences, including 1- to 3-bedroom apartments and duplexes, crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a refined balance between elegance and functionality.

The amenities elevate the residential experience: signature restaurants with farm-to-table gastronomy, a wellness and spa area, infinity gardens, an open-air cinema, a state-of-the-art gym, and dedicated spaces for relaxation and community.

More than a residential complex, Atzaró Playa del Carmen Residences is a sanctuary of being: a place where luxury is not defined by excess, but by connection—with the land, the sea, the body, and oneself. Positioned in a privileged beachfront location near the cosmopolitan heart of the Riviera Maya, it offers not only a solid investment opportunity but also an exceptional lifestyle inspired by nature, culture, and the eternal rhythm of the Caribbean.

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.

The Hotel TOH is developed within the jungle of Tulum, the inspiration always arises from nature, adn in this case, we have taken the Toh bird as the inspiring element, which is a speciic bird from that área existing within the Masterplan.

The movement of its feathers generates an architecture that, like a musical score, creates an architectural sequence and a play of roots that gives the whole Project an harmonic movement, just like the movement of the Toh bird’s wings, creating a series of colors that change shades with the play of the sun and is reflected in the lagoon. It is in this lagoon where we place the Project in the shape o fan ellipse.

In the center are the amenities including a panoramic restaurant overlooking the lagoon and the jungle, the administration area, and the Spa Wellness.

Around it, there is alse a luxury villa área with a top-notch “à la carte” restaurant and a cocktail area, with rooms on both sides overlooking the lagoon and the jungle.

We are a multidisciplinary, international and organic team leader with an innovative vision of architecture. Our differences complement us obtain better results in the projects we design. We share the unique goal of designing spaces that significantly improve people’s lives. We make your dreams come true, capturing the DNA of our clients in each of our projects, combining the most advanced architectural techniques with the talent of a multidisciplinary team. At DNA each project has its own personality, its own soul, its own DNA.

The wish of the client, who is a large development company in Austria, is to create a new center on the outskirts of Vienna. The land is located between the industrial area, overlooking the lakes and the mountains. Given the size of the project, it will be carried out in phases. Of course, we find the extension of the hotel, which will be expanded with an iconic scale and a profile inspired by the idea of ​​the waves and in this case the idea of ​​the profile of the mountains. Therefore, the project will have an extension of the hotel. It will also have a new area with a residence for the elderly, a shopping center on the first and second floors, and ample office space aimed at attracting technology startups and financing. Thus, different centers will be created throughout the project. The land has a pyramid in the center and around it will be located the different programs of the project that will cover 180,000 square meters. For this reason, a section has been created for the parking lot, facing away from the road and creating a buffer in the upper part of the parking lot. In addition, they have begun to build micro-apartments and, in short, we are generating a process that gives the sensation of having bophilic architecture, which immerses users in nature, with an oasis in the center and in all the buildings, which will have different terraces with views of the pyramid, the lake and the mountains, with sunlight giving life to this entire coworking project and this community of partners, called Greenland Vienna.

The Zenote project was born from the will of a client who purchased a one-hectare plot of land within the jungle of Tulum, a project that has no relation to the sea and that handicap we turned into a strength by creating a powerful concept which is the cenote of the Riviera Maya. The formal evolution of the project arises from the conception of the cenotes both in plan and section with the jungle at ground level and obviously the cenote at a lower depth. We fused the concept of the cenote into the terrain creating a repeated eight block type organized in a circular way and unified by terraces that give the project the character of a cenote having a connection between sky and earth, and all the terraces that are full of vegetation each one with its own jacuzzies and outdoor areas for eating and lounging they pour into the cenote and create that biophilic feeling of being immersed in nature. This contributes to the project’s microclimate, reducing the need for passive air conditioning systems and lowering temperatures, which is necessary in Tulum’s climate. The presence of nature is crucial for the user’s well-being and especially for balancing the body, mind, and soul.

DNA presents “LIFE TREE” Tulum, Mexico , born from the clients desire to generate a new experience. From a conceptual point of view, in DNA we always aim towards the fusion between art and technology and in this case, we sought the fusion between nature and architecture, which generates the word, as we call it in DNA, “Archi-Nature”. In this way, we take inspiration from the bird’s nests, and from them our design process in DNA begins.

This project was more about embracing nature and the jungle in Tulum, rather than the ocean, therefore an iconic project was generated from the desire to create a tree of life, with a center from which everything revolves around, and where ten nests structures appear. the experience is enhanced by wandering through the place through walkways, climbing from a walkway to the top of the trees and then you are in your own nest. In the end, today`s tourism has to be more oriented to nature and how to live those unique experiences, so that you return home nourished by exceptional experiences.

While magical outdoor spaces, such us multipurpose pavilion, indoor comunity spaces, leisure areas, restaurants, and a panoramic nest with unrestricted views bring an added value to the project.

DNA makes an emphasis on sustainability concept respecting ecosystem and biodiversity, constributing to the usage of natural materials that minimizes the impact of building and generation of waste.
