A 50 m² apartment in the Les Corts neighbourhood, set in a 1936 modernist building — with a spatial logic rare for this footprint. The original layout already included three bedrooms and a common area with an open kitchen, and it was precisely this ergonomics that became the foundation of the project.
The interior was reimagined while preserving the balance between history and modernity. The open kitchen-living room forms a unified, airy space, while the integrated balcony enhances the sense of light and depth.
The key gesture was working with the building's authentic architectural fabric. Restored Catalan hydraulic tiles are paired with microcement, delicately filling in lost sections. Behind a dropped ceiling, original wooden beams and vaults were revealed — they were preserved, allowing the interior to gain an expressive texture. Parts of the walls were stripped to Catalan brick, which became a natural accent.
The engineering was fully renewed: utilities replaced, new windows, doors, and air conditioning installed.
The furniture blends custom-made pieces with antique finds. Every element is precise in scale and function, forming a cohesive, understated environment.
The result is a bright, restrained interior with a clear character, where a modest footprint delivers the feeling of a fully realised, thoughtfully designed living space.
