Private Residence III is a project designed by Cristina Carulla Studio located in a Modernist building built in 1907. The apartment – dark and dusty when we entered for the first time-, had little to preserve except the fabulous Nolla mosaics hidden for decades under layers of cheap floorings. The color palette and the sophisticated furniture was highly conditioned by the strong patterns on the floors.

This private residence sits within the Mauna Kea Resort on the island of Hawai’i, a place full of memories for the client who recalls family vacations to the famous hotel. The clients share an affinity for Hawai’i and Polynesia, for modern art and design, and for the beauty of natural materials and craftsmanship. They enlisted the firm to design a modern tropical home that their family would enjoy for years to come. The design solution balances traditional forms including prominent hipped roofs identified in the design guidelines for this coastal community, while translating the spirit of Polynesian cultures through a modern sense of restraint. On a site privileged by nature, immediately above Kauna’oa Bay, this home is organized as a series of modern tropical pavilions, which together conjure the impression of a small village.

Private Residence II is a project designed by Cristina Carulla Studio located in Passeig de Gracia, one of the most important avenues in the city, where luxury shops and the best restaurants in town fill the commercial space. Natural light is the main protagonist in this flat, as every room has big windows facing the street. The whole house breathes art, as white walls allowed us to put selected pieces such as the illustrations on the bookshelf and some paintings in the living room and in the suite.
