A small apartment turned into a cozy and functional home

The study of Marta Estarriol He faced a significant challenge with this renovation project for an 80m² apartment in the center of Barcelona. The clients, who reside abroad, sought a home for their trips to the capital and wanted to feel comfortable and at home. Creating warmth in a space is one of Marta's specialties, so the first step was to eliminate hallways to create warm and functional spaces. The result was two double bedrooms, an office/guest room, and two bathrooms.

The choice of materials was important to achieve the desired result. Natural oak wood was used as the main element in the project, including solid herringbone parquet flooring and dark-stained oak kitchen cladding. Additionally, the walls were paneled with lacquered MDF, and the doors were integrated to create an elegant and neutral atmosphere that contrasts with wine-colored elements in the chairs and textiles.

The small bathroom presented a significant challenge due to the lack of space, but it was ingeniously solved by integrating the sink into the room and separating it with a large sliding door.

The desired style was achieved: a warm, functional, and exclusive apartment. The bathroom is monochromatic and neutral with the Carnac natural porcelain sink and a black faucet, which adds an elegant and sophisticated touch to the space.

In summary, this renovation demonstrates Marta Estarriol's team's ability to transform an old, compartmentalized space into a cozy and functional home, perfect for clients who want to feel at home during their trips to the capital.
