davide macullo on drawing from albania's heritage & terrain for upcoming residential towers
Briefly

Davide Macullo Architects has significantly influenced Albania's architectural development since 2020, focusing on designs that reflect the country’s rich history and natural beauty. Their projects, such as The Leaves and Valona Hills, emphasize context-driven architecture, reacting sensitively to local culture and materiality. The ongoing Rezi Dream Hotel project integrates with Albania's terrain and is inspired by historical elements. Macullo advocates for architecture that enriches the environment and enhances human comfort, aspiring to create spaces that resonate with both their surroundings and the users within them.
"The ambitions of a project must always respond to the needs of the place where we operate. Our designs emerge from their context."
"Our aim is for these buildings to integrate harmoniously into their surroundings - enriching the environment and making people feel at ease through their interaction with light, color, and form."
