Behind the Design

Unique Properties: Access from the street is decadent. The itinerary to the house builds an experience that will continue to its interior. The high ceilings and patios allow natural lighting inside the apartment. Intense experiences are generated and moving away from the crazy rhythm of the city.
Dimensions & Packaging: Area: 104 sqm
Tags: Residential, Architecture, Interior Design, Reform
Production Technology: The moldings found in the apartment were much damage. We decided to rebuild them with a contemporary interpretation. Its design was unusual, extended, and exceeded the limits. Looking at it seems like it is sculpted on the walls and ceilings. The pavements were raised in the areas where the floor was lower. We made a compression layer that connected to the wooden beams and replaced the mosaics.
Design Challenge: The treatment on the moldings was artisanal and meticulous to get the best quality. They were designed in such a way that their boundaries are blurred, extending their shape beyond the usual.
Research: The original iron fittings were recovered, as well as the hydraulic pavements. They had to be lifted from time to time to repair the slab and move it to its original position.
Inspiration: In the historic center of Barcelona, a flat is reformed, in a building of 1840 on the emblematic Escudellers street, which in the Middle Ages had been the center of the potters' guild. In rehabilitation, we take into account traditional construction techniques.
Project Duration: The project is located in Barcelona, 2018.
Operation Flow: In the program, the existing distribution was modified, according to current requirements. In this way, all rooms receive natural light. Two partitions were removed to bring together the kitchen, dining room, and living room in an open space.
