We found a used and highly fragmented apartment that responded to the multiple needs that were carried out in it along its more than one hundred years of life spam. The new program for 3 dwellers, a marriage with a grown-up son, has allowed us to completely re-evaluate the content.
It is a deep apartment of 2,228 sqft located at the first floor of a building constructed at the beginning of the last century with a beautiful protected neoclassical façade facing to a main leafy boulevard. It also has a narrow courtyard in the back of the block and two small patios for light and ventilation. The search for natural light in the inner parts is a maximum pursuit.
The strategy we have used is less walls and less enclosed spaces, just enough to keep intimacy in personal retreats. Shared spaces treated as a sequence of fluid spaces. In this way we want to get the spaces flowing visually as much as possible.
In these types of exercises our approaches seek to enlarge the spaces by tactically placing volumes, "volumetric objects", usually storage, as minimum delimitators to differentiate ambiances. We give them some sort of prudent personality by applying specific color to potentiate their object condition.
The entrance hall, the distributor of the rooms, the office, the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen, are interconnected or subtly spatially differentiated, without any element that makes them shut visually between them.
We have relied on the geometry of the plant for the design decision making, and on a long main facade in chamfer that generates a wide arc movement in which numerous floor-to-ceiling windows occur. We place all shared spaces to this side of the house.
The work of indirect artificial lighting that we place hidden in the ceiling and the difference of ceiling heights generate comfortable leaving environment.
We place the most intimate needs at the inner part of the apartment. As it happens that one of the patios arises from this floor, we have been able to incorporate it in the main bedroom. To do this we have eliminated the opaque walls that defined it, by transparent glass walls. With this operation, we not only expanded greater luminosity to the inside but enlarged the perception of the space. This same operation we do to the minor bedroom on its exposed facade to the second patio.
The usage of light hardwood flooring, paint, white at the walls and ceilings, graphite at the "volumetric objects", large plates of ceramic for bathrooms and kitchen.
A serene and elegant, quasi-abstract space is sought, led to users to set their personal imprints by the selection of the furniture.
