Ana Z. Schenk founded Sinestezia , she is a high-energy architect with nature conscious innovative ideas that communicate through Architecture and City life to change the ways we feel and use our spaces.
Ana Z. Schenk projects offer full range of design services that enhance synesthetic experience, stimulate social interaction and add value. My goal is to exceed your design expectations while maintaining your project’s schedule and budgetary constraints.
Ana Z. Schenk objects follow projects. They are intervention objects that address specific situations in space in a direct way and lead the way for new and surprising uses. Objects also advocate inclusive design and showcase craft and heritage of the Balkan regions to a broader public.
Ana Z. Schenk actions is our experimental zone where teaching and workshops intertwine with public gatherings and other interventions . Arctions are less project or an object but more a true sinesthetic atmosphere sensing new potentials, mostly from the local people and spaces.
Ana Z. Schenk strategies are our instruments for sustainable project development and our commitment to the value we bring in the project. We use management and communication to structure open planning processes. We link strategic guidelines with action areas and visions of the future; integrating various spatial city levels - urban district – quarter- building- courtyard-street and their interactions; integration of main fields of action. Always having space to adapt to unforeseen developments through regular evaluations. Evaluate objectives and guidelines, evaluate and learn as base to optimise strategies, programmes and planning processes.

Lachen villa with its special location right at the Obersee lake of Zürich, enjoys its residential calm, resort, beautiful flair and beaches–all that just 30 minutes from Zürich. Lachen is known for it’s part-time celebrity inhabitants and its exquisite villas. Villa Medusa is one of them, built in 1990. Three years ago Villa Medusa was bought by Dielel Renz Family. When they arrived, they had one kid and now the family grew to parents with 3 kids and their needs have have to be adapted to the new situation and their lifestyle. Sinestezia spent several days with the family, understanding their modes and habits. Pursuing Feng Shui was a wish of the clients and and we were guided by a FS specialist Markus Frei. We have proposed a vertical functional layout that will allow faster and slower activities. Important was to recreate a new warmer facade – a real skin, able to change and adapt to climatic demands. It will at the same time make difference to surrounding neighbouring houses, and will adapt to the landscape and seek ressemblances with natural materials in the surroundings. Water, mountains and greenery were even for the facade primary design principles. Interior guiding principle was the idea to ‘tell stories’ of each space and to have a visible connecting wireframe tying all these ‘stories’ in a book or all the spaces as one house.
