The project consists of the reform of a flat in Barcelona’s Eixample. It is located on the chamfer, which explains its elongated and narrow plan, almost of corridor. Before the intervention, the aparment had undergone multiple transformations. The original hydraulic flooring and Catalan vaulted roof had been covered by low-value materials.

Inspired by the Californian domestic experience of the 1950s, this house is resolved through a modular system that serves as an envelope. The skin, an industrial and standardized coating, was marking the rhythm of the full and empty. The house is resolved on a single floor.

A house built for a garden. On a quiet street next to Chapultepec forest, a discrete volcanic rock wall reveals an entrance that when entering a young Jacaranda is spotted at the end of the plot bathed in sunlight.
