Spanish architecture firm Destudio has renovated a penthouse dubbed the Ático Curvo located in Valencia. It is defined by a large outdoor terrace that overlooks breathtaking views of the city's Turia gardens. The apartment is designed with soft architectural lines and circular details. There is also a curved glass-paneling face which offers the same captivating look.
The creative director of Destudio, Gabi Ladaria spoke to Dezeen, noting "Our main objective was always to underline these breathtaking views. To achieve this, we removed anything that might detract attention from them within the main living spaces." She continues, "We created bespoke storage around the perimeter of the interior to ensure unobstructed views of the city. We chose to incorporate soft furnishings and curved edges to ensure cohesion throughout the interior and to create a holistic design with a flowing quality."
