This apartment is located in Polanco,
in Mexico City, just across from a park so the views are mostly of fantastic
tree tops. The apartment has one level with wide spaces that allowed making a
proper distribution of the areas resulting in a casual, very warmth and open
ambience.
The remodeling project of this space
considered a master bedroom for one person and a guest room; it also includes a
library with enough privacy that, when necessary, may also be an additional
guest room. Because of its location the entrance hall lacks of natural light;
this situation was solved with a plafond where lamps were installed and the
walls were painted in an intense red color that unifies the walls and doors generating
an ample single space. All floors, except for kitchen and bathrooms, are of a light-colored
wood, the same shade was maintained in all the custom made furniture. The plafond
was placed as high as possible to avoid affecting the amplitude of the spaces.
The intensity and brightness of the
entrance blends with the rest of the areas, for these a neutral color was
selected to make the most of the natural light. There are also some red accents
in the same color of the entrance hall. The artificial light is indirect and where
the height was not sufficient they were installed on furniture and walls. Some
walls have accent lights to emphasize the space and there are also some suspended lights. Among the
living room and dining room is a large column, which was covered with a luminous
material, to convert it into a great central light object.
