CASA CIRILO

When design inspires warmth

Destudio as Architects

Located in the heart of Valencia, Casa Cirilo opens its doors as a comprehensive reform project whose main objective was to provide modernity and functionality to the whole house.

Its 120 sqm of surface are screened with a wooden floor in the form of herringbone. Wood once again stands out as the material that welcomes, integrates and harmonizes the different rooms of the house.

In the purest style of the houses of the Valencian Ensanche, Casa Cirilo was based on being a dark house, with a long corridor and compartmentalized in small and impractical rooms for today's uses.

The clients had the fundamental premise of giving the house as much light as possible, as well as gaining functionality and practicality.

This has been achieved by integrating the kitchen with the living/dining room of the house, but maintaining the separation of the rooms with a sliding glass door. Thanks to this element we gain entry of light and generate greater feeling of spaciousness to the whole day area.

The warm tones throughout the interior design of Casa Cirilo envelop the entire project with a cozy touch that invites you to live in it.
