At an altitude of 1.360 metres, the Querola de Ordino is one of the most evocative places in Andorra, the small independent principality among the Pyrenean peaks. The investor Proyectes Singulares asked the star architect Jean Nouvel and his Atelier, Ribas Arquitectos and Naudi-Sala to build 56 highly prestigious villa-homes integrated into the landscape and overlooking the three valleys that converge in Ordino. The result is a necklace of sculptural 'monoliths' that appear as a collection of erratic boulders that fell during the ice ages, the apartments, duplex or triplex, develop an osmotic and priceless relationship with the fascinating surrounding environment. In this context, the customized PLH Neo and MakeUp collections integrate well, but above all the Skin electric control plate, customized with decorative inserts in cement-effect plaster and wood with a particular saw cut, fits in harmoniously and with impact.
