This building was designed for Renderforest, an IT company among the top 100 software companies worldwide that offers products that make successful branding affordable and available to everyone. The initial building was a 2-story abandoned semi-finished construction, which needed to be completely redesigned and refurbished.
The apartment is located in the central part of Yerevan and has a beautiful view. The style of the apartment is a mix of French classic and contemporary design. The apartment has an expansive and open space kitchen, living and dining areas, two bedrooms, and a special reading room linked to the main bedroom. Access to living room and bedrooms is through two hallways which also expand towards the main and guest bathroom. The living area is divided from the kitchen by a large stone covered island which is one of the leading design elements of the apartment. The eye-catching mix of two extremely different styles is visible everywhere in the apartment. One of the main contrasts is the moldings that frame the ceiling which houses high tech and exposed lighting, audio and video systems. The windows around the dining area imitate French balconies. There is also one balcony near the living area. The apartment is full of light and the general color is a slightly off-white shade for the walls which creates a nice background for the furniture to stand out and gives an opportunity to change the apartment mood by adding or removing furniture elements.
The General Plan of Yerevan was created by academician Alexander Tamanian at the beginning of the 20th century was planned to be reconstructed as a city-park. But this plan was distorted and further construction was carried out by careless destruction of green area and distortion of natural landscape.

The Chapel-Bell Tower was built on the territory of the Asylum of the aged people and is operating under authority of the Armenian Apostolic Church. The structure’s composition is multiaxial and is provided for numerous viewpoints. The Chapel dominates the surrounding large green area due to its slenderness and light color. Its volume is formed by the two main intertwining sub-volumes. These are a pyramidal solid and a tetrahedral dome which connect to each other by two rectangular pylons. The two volumes symbolize the earthly and celestial worlds.

A proposed living hill by Forrest Fulton Architecture
Instead of a towering Iconic image, disconnected from historic, horizontal Yerevan, Lace Hill stitches the adjacent city and landscape together to support a holistic, ultra-green lifestyle, somewhere between rural hillside living and dense cultured urbanity. The 85,000 square meter (915,000 sf) proposal is a new model of development for Yerevan and Armenia that supports a resilient, high-value spatial fabric, dense with overlapping natural and urban phenomenon.
Program: mixed-use complex with hotel, residential, office, retail, exhibition, cinema, health center, underground parking, public green space, plazas, and terraced gardens
Area: 85,000 sm (915,000 sf)
Client: Avangard Motors, LLC
Status: 2010 Competition Entry for International Business Center with an Intercontinental Hotel in Yerevan
Project Team: Jared Fulton, Andrew C. Bryant, Derrick Owens
All Seasons Tent Tower – Mercedes Benz Hotel Tower
The competition was held to create an international business centre containing a museum and hotel in Yerevan. The prominent location and dominating position of the competition area represents a chance for a unique arrangement with its own identity and could become a symbol or landmark of contemporary architecture in the city of Yerevan. The mixture of programs and relations inside the space calls for complex organisation – both inside and outside.
