Decq designed the layout of the Duplex home so that the bedrooms and living rooms are awash in natural light and provide spectacular views. Upon entering the home residents are greeted by floor-to-ceiling windows that give way to the spacious private terraces, accentuating the idea of indoor-outdoor living. The loft-like approach provides large open spaces and flexibility of use so that residents can configure the Duplex to meet their own needs.

The interiors of the home are finished in white matte and feature high-quality bamboo timber flooring throughout the living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and corridors.

For the exterior architecture of Antares, every aspect of Decq’s design was intentional – from the use of the bold red, black and white color scheme, to the elegantly curved terraces which give the building its distinctive look. Rising 100 meters with 26 stories tall, Antares is the first, new construction, luxury residential tower in Barcelona. It features 88 impeccably designed residences which include 1, 2, 3 and 4-bedroom apartments, duplexes and penthouses. Residents enter Antares greeted by a triple-height lobby with a curved feature wall, bespoke concierge desk and resident’s lounge area, boasting a full-height green wall extending into the garden. The building also provides private parking and storage area for every residence, porte-cochère, attentive concierge service and 24/7 security.

At the base of the building is the new public restaurant Le Grand Café Rouge from Chef Romain Fornell, which is based on Mediterranean gastronomy that revisits the classics of French cuisine in a contemporary atmosphere. Odile collaborated on the restaurant’s design with Chef Fornell, who garnered his first Michelin star at the age of 24, being the youngest chef to obtain this distinction, and has since opened 13 restaurants in Barcelona.

Antares sits just a few minutes' walk from the intimate Port Forum marina and Mar Bella beach. The area is known for the nearby Telefonica Tower, Museu Blau, and the 22@ Innovation District.
