Architecture becomes Nature- the project was inspired by the primordial sensation of a nest that characterizes a necessity of protection, so people feel embraced and safe having an opportunity to reconnect with inner-self.

The objective was to create a place where people can achieve maximum rest and relaxation, reconnecting with Mother-Nature. Different common areas such as gardens, pools & spa, pavilion, restaurant, gym, kid´s club were developed to enhance the experience. The space is full of luxury & comfort and provides a true escape from everyday life, allows maximum disconnection and a balance between body-soul-mind.

DNA Barcelona architects unveils “AMIRA DISTRICT, Tulum, MEXICO”, a residential Project, the development by GIADA REAL ESTATE, designed with the intention to offer a unique living experience due to the concept of connection with Nature.

The Position of the building was especially developed to optimize views and integration into the natural environment that surrounds us. Each Building Unit will act as a comunnity with 54 apartments of 1&2&3 bedrooms. The central corridor creates a special exotic microclimate inside, and the continuous swimming pools serve as an extra feature to highlight this magical interior.

DNA´s objective was to achieve the balance between mind-body-soul providing a true escape from everyday life, allowing maximum disconnection and relaxation and that´s why jungle gardens,
community pools with connected channels, sun beds areas & connected rooftop pools were carefully developed and became an important part of this project.

“Amira District, Tulum, Mexico”, the development by GIADA REAL ESTATE, represents a Residential Complex, mostly surrounded by vegetation and nature which provide with unique sensations throughout different available experiences. Each Building Unit will act as a comunnity with 54 apartments of 1&2&3 bedrooms. The project is designed for the environment of great tourist and scenic value in a natural location in the Yucatan region next to the Atlantic Ocean.

The luxury community spaces are integrated into Nature, thus the complex offers jungle gardens, community pools with connected channels, magical outdoor living spaces, sun beds areas integrated in the river, multipurpose pavilions and sports equipment as well as interconnected rooftop pools, gym / yoga areas on deck, and finally provision of outdoor parking. Every element of the building is destinated to relax and enjoy the nature of the place, so the residents feel a peace of mind, a balance between body & soul.

“Amira District” bases its design on the communion between the natural environment and a contrasting geometry with it. The facade emulates the movement of the waves creating dynamism and the material of the facade is indigenous bamboo. The architecture merges with the Nature entering inside the building and going up to the roof top where the social life of each community is flourishes with its unique experiences such as spa, gym, and “bridge pools”.

Ground floor is destined to the location of so many natural elements and communal spaces, provides a private swim-up and garden that communicates with the central area that, like a river-park, runs through the entire city.

The set of buildings is arranged in a way that promotes the inclusion of the access spaces in the set of the exterior space, allowing that architecture to be understood as something that could coexist with nature since ancient times. A mimetism with the forms of nature is searched from the exterior, so that everything comes as a whole, offering to the whole the own dynamism of the movement of the trees with the wind.

DNA unveils a New Proposal for Madrid skyline presenting Millenium Complex in Valdedebas. Millenium Complex represents a unique hotel and office building developed to be integrated in the area of Valdebebas, one of the most important residential, business and leisure districts of Madrid.

The 3 building blocks have 11 levels up and 2 down, offering various functionalities and uses.

The design was elaborated with the goal to highlight building volumes, thus achieving the game between the heights and the corners to give dynamism to the whole complex. Single and unique basement allows the creation of a central space where the blocks´ activities are related and communicated. Independent façade program is developed to get a variety of combinations for tertiary and hotel uses.

DNA unveils “Cocoon Hotel & resort”, Tulum, Mexico- a new eco-resort which merges with Nature being located in the exotic jungles, just next to the sea. The project is 46.181 m2 and consists of 3 residential and 2 hotel buildings “COCOON” with 204 apartments and 167 rooms as well as 16 private villas.

The inspiration for this project comes from 3 concepts- the Nest, the Cell and the Forest. The nest represents a need of protection and gives a primordial sensation of embracement and security where people can reconnect with the inner self, with community, with Nature. We are all used to see birds nest since childhood; it’s a familiar shape that remembers us birth and family… In this concept the nest becomes the external language of the cluster, a filter between the completely natural forest and the man-made building.

The distribution of the units- Cocoons follows the concept of molecule containing different elements, with the nest as a membrane and the building as cells. The cell represents a beginning of life, which can be divided into other cells thus giving more new lives.

Finally, the Forest becomes the integral part of the project as it represents Nature, which allows the life on the planet. The set of Cocoons is disposed in a way that gives an access to outdoor spaces allowing architecture to be understood as something that can coexist with Nature. Cocoon Hotel & Resort is a space which becomes one with Nature.
