This apartment in Barcelona was transformed for a couple of doctors who were expecting their first child and were looking for a calm, warm place with personality.

The house still bore the marks of its former owner: a display case overflowing with hats, small objects, and a rigid layout that didn't exactly invite you to linger. The couple, both friendly and avid readers, envisioned the opposite: an open, bright space with Mid-century touches that would complement their daily life and the arrival of their baby. It was the perfect time to start fresh.

  • The renovation was a smooth process. All the partitions that no longer served their purpose were demolished, freeing up the floor plan and allowing light to flow naturally between the rooms. Part of the challenge was to give it character. The result is a home that combines carefully considered proportions with a layout that adapts to their lifestyle.

    The kitchen was designed with a warm palette from the very first glance. WOOD Cherry introduces a touch of understated color, reinforced by small objects and accessories that brighten the space without overwhelming it, along with built-in WOOD Cherry cabinets that maximize storage. This interplay of hues, which is repeated throughout the house, becomes a subtle way to highlight specific areas and create visual rhythm.

Today, the house exudes a sense of calm. Built-in wardrobes in the various rooms, finished in a range of colors in Argil and Roto LACQUERS, help to organize the space and create a sense of continuity. Reading plays an important role in their daily lives, and the design reflects this: pathways are gentle, spaces open up without being jarring, and the light highlights the blend of cherry wood with the neutral tones that run throughout the home.

The renovation marks the beginning of a new stage: a growing family, a space that adapts, and a home that, through simplicity, finds its own special character.
