There’s little in the house that points to the owner J Balvin’s exalted status as a kingmaker and serial collaborator on the global music scene. It’s difficult, for that matter, to even guess which part of the world he hails from. Perched high up in the clouds, an hour outside his hometown of Medellin, Casa Aire is designed to keep guests guessing, while providing a perfectly balanced home for the five natural elements once associated with the Platonic solids – earth, water, fire, air and aether (or heavenly bodies).
The five Platonic solids also inspired the name of the Colombian architecture and interior design studio, 5 Sólidos, who created this minimalist home. Led by Daniel Correa, Maria José Fernandez and Elisa Ortega, the youthful, Medellin-based trio have been propelled into the architectural stratosphere by their stylish collaborations with their most illustrious client at home and, more recently, abroad.
