Fran Silvestre Arquitectos has designed the packaging for a limited edition for TAG Heuer, a collaboration born from a relationship we have always considered particularly close: the one between watchmaking and architecture.

Although architecture has traditionally been understood as a static art, its link with time has been present since the most ancient cultures. Babylonians, Egyptians, Mayans, and many other civilizations considered the movement of the sun to orient, build, and give meaning to their architectures. Light, its path, and its variations throughout the day and year transform spaces, activate volumes, and bring architecture to life with the passage of time.

This limited edition commemorates the summer solstice, a time of year when light acquires a particularly unique chromaticism. Based on this idea, the studio has developed packaging that captures the tones of sunset during this period and transforms them into an enclosure capable of telling a shared story between both disciplines.

The design incorporates sketches of some Fran Silvestre Arquitectos projects in which the movement of the sun has played an essential role in the conception of space. These drawings accompany the watch and allow for the construction of a visual narrative around light, time, and precision, values present in both architecture and watchmaking.

Inside, the watch is presented within personalized packaging featuring elements from both brands, reinforcing the convergence of technical rigor, material sensitivity, and the ability to measure that which, though invisible, transforms our way of inhabiting: the passage of time.

The proposal is conceived from a composition of floor slabs that unfold as white horizontal planes, creating a dynamic and elongated facade through a clear architectural gesture.

This geometric arrangement resolves the dwelling’s siting and varies according to each room and its orientation, blurring the boundaries and articulating a fluid connection between the interior and exterior spaces.

The project, currently under construction, is conceived as a system in which horizontal planes organize the entire program. This condition allows each area to be adapted to its specific needs without losing visual coherence or the lightness of the entire ensemble.

Located in the prestigious Alameda Gabriel Monteiro da Silva in São Paulo, Dell Anno’s new architectural project is progressing in its construction phase. This space is characterized by a large suspended volume that will serve as an urban showcase and an undeniable reference within one of the main avenues dedicated to the city’s design.

The architecture of this work is organized around two superimposed longitudinal bodies. The proportions of this structure, which gradually takes shape on the site, respond directly to the elongated and slender geometry of the plot where the construction works are currently taking place.

Once the construction is finished, the interior design will be conceived as a continuous spatial sequence in which the visitor will discover the premises progressively. Throughout this journey, the route will offer subtle variations in light, scale and materiality that will completely transform the atmosphere of the place.

These architectural elements will intertwine to create a sensory gradient that will accompany each step and guide the perception of the environment. In this way, it is aimed to generate an immersive experience where proportion, depth, and movement will play a leading role from beginning to end.

The result of this ongoing work will be a unique and avant-garde space, capable of expressing with total fidelity the values of precision, sophistication and maximum attention to detail that characterize the brand.

The residential project – KOH in Samui, Thailand, has entered its finishing phase, marking the final stretch for the materialization of this single-family home. Situated on an elevated plot with a steep slope, the architecture seeks to maximize uninterrupted views of the ocean while guaranteeing absolute privacy from neighboring properties. This strategic location allows the house to appear to float above the mountain, establishing an atmosphere of isolation, serenity, and exclusivity in perfect harmony with the island surroundings.

Structurally, the house is defined by a composition of two white horizontal slabs that create an elongated and dynamic facade tailored to the orientation of each room. This clean design conceals a truss system between the floor slabs, allowing for large cantilevers and wide, open spaces without visual interference. Functionally, the construction already reflects its layout across two levels: an upper level conceived as a self-contained unit for daily living—with social areas, the master bedroom, and an infinity pool that merges with the sea—and a lower level reserved for service quarters, a gym, and a second master bedroom.

With the main structure fully completed, current work centers on applying finishes, building services, and interior details, utilizing natural materials and neutral tones that enhance the overall aesthetic. Simultaneously, the organic landscaping, specifically designed to respect the original topography and minimize earthworks, is nearing completion. With this progress in the finishing stage, the interior spaces and landscape-facing bathrooms are definitively blurring the lines between modern architecture and the tropical nature of Koh Samui.
