ATELIER CARACAS IS A DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURAL PRACTICE, LOOKING WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF ITS HOME, VENEZUELA. IT IS BASED IN CARACAS AND WAS FOUNDED IN 2015 BY ARCHITECTS JULIO KOWALENKO AND RODRIGO ARMAS, WHO BECAME FRIENDS WHILE STUDYING AT THE PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSIDAD CENTRAL DE VENEZUELA. THEIR STUDIO INVOLVES A TEAM OF CREATIVES AND NON COMFORMISTS THAT GIVE LIFE TO PROJECTS THAT ARE AS DISPARATE AS THEIR INTERESTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INDUSTRIAL DESIGN, PUBLIC AREAS, PRIVATE RESIDENCIES, RETAIL SPACES, POP-UPS, ALL OVER THE WORLD.

OPERATING AS A THINK TANK FOR FORMAL, AESTHETIC AND CULTURAL INVESTIGATION, ATELIER CARACAS DRAWS STRONG INFLUENCES FROM ITS LOCAL CONTEXT, POP CULTURE AND THE EVERYDAY, FINDING IN ALL THAT SURROUNDS AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXTRACT THEIR ARCHITECTURAL BEING, RECOGNIZING THE SAME PATTERNS IN SMALL AND LARGE SCALES TO CREATE ALLURING SPACES AND OBJECTS AT ONCE HUMOROUS, THOUGHT-PROVOKING AND SYMBOLICALLY CHARGED.

OVER THE YEARS, ATELIER CARACAS HAS DEVELOPED A BOLD PORTFOLIO OF CREATIVE PROJECTS THAT WANDER THROUGH THE REALMS OF FINE ARTS, ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN. THEIR WORK HAS DRAWN INTEREST FROM DISTINCTIVE COLLECTORS, BRANDS AND INTERNATIONAL ART GALLERIES IN NORTH & LATIN AMERICA, EUROPE AND THE MIDDLE EAST. THEIR DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS INCLUDE EXCEPTIONAL REPRESENTATION BY THE LIKES OF GALERIE PHILIA (NEW YORK, GENEVE, SINGAPORE), COLLECTIONAL GALLERY (DUBAI) AND LIMA MODERN GALLERY (PERU); THEY HAVE COLLABORATED WITH INTERNATIONAL PLAYERS SUCH AS FERRARI, SONY MUSIC LATIN / 5020 STUDIOS, BARTLETT SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE AND ASOCIACIÓN VENEZOLANA DE CONCIERTOS AND HAVE EXHIBITED AT RENOWNED EVENTS SUCH AS “UNTITLED ART” AT ART BASEL MIAMI BEACH 2021 AND PINTA MIAMI 2022.
