Villa Rita | Area-17 Architecture & Interiors
Cuenca / Ecuador / 2013
2
Villa Rita is a charming three story house in the historic downtown area of Cuenca, completely renovated by Area-17. The allure of the building remains intact thanks to a design in which the new and the old coexist in a harmonious and placid way. Materials and shapes of local traditions, such as colorful ceramics and wrought iron, mix with those preferred by contemporary architecture. The interiors are furnished with iconic industrial design pieces, as well as custom-made pieces by Area-17. Works of art by famous Ecuadorian artist Lorena Serrano decorate the pure white walls.
