Where are the filming locations of the series “Welcome to Eden”?
Indeed, while the storyline has captivated fans of Spanish fiction, they were also amazed by the magnificent landscapes discovered throughout the series. “Welcome to Eden” was filmed between Lanzarote and Teruel in the Canary Islands, Spain. More specifically, at the Solos Houses. Set designer Marti Marcos revealed how the filming location was chosen and why this island perfectly matched the atmosphere of “Welcome to Eden”: “We chose Lanzarote because it is a paradise island. And, secondly, it is also a mysterious island, where all the characters will eventually feel trapped. Lanzarote embodies these two ideas: it is both an earthly paradise and very Martian, arid, with its volcanoes and black sand beaches. A very lunar landscape.”
What are the Solo Houses?
The Solo Houses were born from the personal and professional project of Madrid-based curator Eva Albarrán and Parisian architect Christian Bourdais. In 2015, they started shaping this idea on an 80-hectare farm, involving the brightest architects in the world. The original and circular architecture of the building makes it a unique place to live. Thus, according to Spanish media, including Heraldo-Es, these circular houses are one of the great attractions of the region. They are used for all kinds of audiovisual productions, from fiction to advertising, music videos, and photography sessions.
